Whether Aaron was careless or not in his original design (and I can’t really judge that), I have admired his rapid response to this whole mess. I wish him the best of luck.

Metacafe is the only decent alternative to the GooTube monopoly. I hope that they will keep growing. I think that they will!

I am a strong proponent for openness BUT that does not mean at the expense of data that the user INTENDS TO BE PRIVATE. Data portability in every sense should be available as should security precautions that the USER should fully control.

GroupTweet didn’t think through their service. This should have been an obvious problem to someone designing a piece of software. There is no reason to have any faith in them. They are sure to “overlook” major problems with their software again.

My recommendation is to keep away.

Zach, @1 – no, don’t blame twitter for being too open, @2 – no, twitter shouldn’t do anything special for third party apps

Even if it is user error, Twitter should at least have a SPECIAL warning for GroupTweet users….

Cheers to GroupTweet for being so responsible.

I blame Twitter for the problem as they allowed third parties too much access. They should have their shit on lock down by now.
