94th on the chart [1] - as for a town square I respectfully disagree, its a website - 12th according to rankings. Just nudges infront of the other famous town square, pornhub and a little further behind, linkedin. Half the 'traffic' of reddit, and 1/3 of apple somehow, not to mention the giant in the room, facebook. Surely if there is a town square that is it ... i doubt many would even agree with that.

I am yet to see said demonstration. Are we worried that XYZ blue checkmark twitter users public tweets are not encrypted at rest on their servers? Or that the entire corpus of the library of twitter might be lost in an catastrophic event?
