Twitter用户将不能通过UberTwitter终端使用Twitter

如果你发现你的UberTwitter上不了Twitter，你的黑莓手机或账户不是有什么问题。有问题的是UberTwitter终端。不单单黑莓端，iPhone与Andriod终端都被Twitter停止服务。

今天许多用户发表意见说他们不能通过UberTwitter上他们的Twitter账户。时候发现这不是个案，而是UberTwitter终端被Twitter墙了。用户将不能使用UberTwitter登陆Twitter服务器。当所有人都在想“这是为什么嗫？” Tiwtter的发言人发布了消息。以下是简要：

Caroly Panner （Twitter发言人）指出希望所有软件开发者遵从Twitter的规定为Twitter建立一个健康的社交环境。Twitter每一天都很努力的区维护这个社交群的健康。至今为止已经暂时禁止好几个客户端（UberTwitter，Twidroyd和UberC）。禁止的原因在于这些客户端在不同程度违反Twitter规定以及商标。Twitter在上一年4月开始已经跟UberTwitter交谈过关于违规和侵权的问题。那时候UberTwitter还是以TweetUp命名，而TweetUp是Twitter用户间的惯用口头禅。Twitter与UberTwitter会继续商谈希望UberTwitter往后遵守Twitter的规定把大受欢迎的UberTwitter带回用户身边。

克里斯同学不用Twitter所以不知道UberTwitter断掉对广大Twitter用户有什么影响。但根据我个人的消息，UberTwitter是国人上Twitter的神器，因为可以翻墙。现在又一神器倒下了。但是UberTwitter并不会像Kik那样，因为Kik只是黑莓端不能用，其它客户端都还是好好的，所以对于Kik来说影响不大。对于UberTwitter因为所有客户端都被停止了，而停它的不是RIM而是“老大”Twitter，在广大用户的要求下，克里斯同学相信UberTwitter将会很快就妥协。各位就慢慢的等待吧希望不要太长。

Here’s the response we received from Carolyn Penner, Twitter’s spokeswoman:

We ask all developers in Twitter ecosystem to abide by a simple set of rules that are in the interests of our users, as well as the health and vitality of the platform as a whole.

We often take actions to enforce these rules; in fact, on an average day we turn off more than one hundred services that violate our API rules of the road. This keeps the ecosystem fair for everyone.

Today we suspended several applications, including UberTwitter, twidroyd and UberCurrent, which have violated Twitter policies and trademarks in a variety of ways. These violations include, but aren’t limited to, a privacy issue with private Direct Messages longer than 140 characters, trademark infringement, and changing the content of users’ Tweets in order to make money.

We’ve had conversations with UberMedia, the developer of these applications, about policy violations since April 2010, when they first launched under the name TweetUp – a term commonly used by Twitter users and a trademark violation. We continue to be in contact with UberMedia and hope that they will bring the suspended applications into compliance with our policies soon.
