A few days ago, the user @Barbijaputa suffered an arbitrary suspension of her account for a supposed violation of Twitter rules because someone claimed that she posted a private photo. The truth is that she didn't, because that photo was in his public profile. Probably Twitter didn't investigate anything and simply suspended her account.

The day after, she wrote a post in her blog on the newspaper eldiario.es with this conclusion: "In the midle of this dabate about freedom of speech, I wonder: when are we going to migrate to a social network which stands up for freedom of speech, which only censor truly delictive behaviors and, if it's not too much, didn't traffic with our personal data?".

Then, she opened an account on quitter.se, which is an instance of the GNU Social network and spread the word about it. Thousands of people followed her, Quitter became trending toppic on twitter and quitter.se had to force new users to create an account in quitter.no and quitter.is instead due to high traffic.

Also many spanish nodes were created: http://s.alabs.org/ ; quitter.es and couple more.

I hope this will be one step into adopting new social networks not focused in selling our data.

There hasn't even been a notable sale or release, to assume an influx of newbie posters. New account, zero games, just a troll account?

Not a troll, just a spambot. They hid the link in the quoted text.

WOW, I didn't even notice the link! That's another thing I'll have to watch out for, from now.

One women posted 'men aren't women' and got banned..

Twitter is now just a major hub for the crazy far left now. Selective enforcement at it's worst.
