I don't see any made-up interpretation. All I see is a direct quote from Apple's response when asked why the app was rejected.

If you didn't see it, it's because you didn't read what he said. Read on a little bit more and you'll see this:

"AFAICT, the app was rejected because we used the words "net neutrality" in the description."

That's not from Apple. That's from him. Made up.

How exactly do I do that? (I know that probably sounds like I'm trolling, but I'm not. It's a serious question. I never use Twitter.)

What did you see when you viewed the link? For me all I had to do was scroll, no special knowledge needed beyond that.

Maybe if don't have an account it shows something different.

Oh, I see, those are followup tweets. I thought they were responses. Didn't pay close enough attention.

So I still don't see any "made-up interpretation". All I see is a sober recounting of their questions and Apple's replies, and one very defensible (IMO) interpretation of the events, clearly labelled with an "AFAICT" disclaimer.
