That's literally what they did.

To me it didn't sound like they linked this dead account anywhere. They literally just squatted a name to never use for anything.

Real class move btw, I hope GPs account gets deleted soon. (And then the flood of people having nothing better to do than destroy some nobody's reputation on social media comes in I guess...)

It's a Twitter account name. Let's not act like this is some huge imposition.

It's ego-centric behaviour which leaves everbody worse off. Thank god it's only a Twitter account name! (...and not global politics governed by old farts out of touch with reality, which is another area where this behaviour is rampant)

They literally said they referenced it on other sites.

Well if they literally said that, then I'm sure you can copy + paste said portion. Because even upon re-reading the comment, I can't find this statement.

Oh, you're right, I misunderstood the point where they said

> Can you imagine if I release my Twitter account, after almost a decade of constant cultivation of my other professional profiles (GitHub, GitLab, LinkedIn, etc) and then someone starts posting malicious messages to make my username look bad?

I thought they'd linked their Twitter account on their other professional profiles.
