>On Monday, some Twitter users began circulating a rumor that changing your birth year to 2007 on the social media service would unlock new color schemes. (Who doesn’t love new color schemes?)
>Unfortunately, it is a prank.
>I found out the hard way. As an intrepid reporter, I saw some of the childish calls to action, as well as @TwitterSupport’s warning against changing your birth year, and decided I needed to investigate. Despite not previously listing my birthdate, I changed my birthday on my account to Jan. 1, 2007, to get those sweet, sweet color schemes.
>Twitter immediately locked my account.
>Twitter users like me, who changed their birth years, found themselves locked out of their accounts for violating the company’s terms of service, which “require everyone who uses Twitter to be 13 or older.”
>“We have determined that you did not meet the minimum age requirement at the time this account was created,” Twitter said to me, a 29-year-old man reportedly born on Jan. 1, 2007.

USA law say below 13 years old minors can't had online accounts, 2019 - 2007 = 12.
Twitter verification just BannED minors

Speaking of Easter Eggs, did you know that Jow Forums has an algorithm that automatically detects credit card numbers and censors them if you type them in?

Buzzfeed "journalists" being retards, what more to expect?
Jace Kelly
lol. And implying if anyone managed to get your name and cvv that you'd even be liable for the charges.
I remember seeing a "is your card compromised" page years ago that was just an enormous list of all valid credit card numbers. People overestimate the inherent security of credit cards themselves.

fuck you it isnt spam

I get that shit all the time when writing code inside code tags. Why the fuck is there a code tag if pretty much any small pile of C trips the spam filter? Fucking chink moot.

>leftists: Requiring voter id is raycis because minorities dont have ids
>leftists: Well only unlock your account if you give us your ID
Aaron Kelly
>more state control over your life is good because liberals mad
i want Jow Forums to leave
Nathan Martinez
Voter ID is not more state control. They already have documentation on all citizens. Voter ID would simply eliminate a huge class of voter fraud, and since the left relies on this fraud they resist voter ID.

The amount of fallacies...
Are you not literally trying to imply that you believe the media to be in charge of politics?
