Mind that news media don't pay

That's exactly what (maybe) violates the law.

You think people should pay X to link to tweets? Or generally for quotes?

[–] NeoNachtwaechter 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

No, I'm not saying anything about 'should'.

It's about a lawsuit here, and I have told that this may be what has violated the law.

The court will tell you for sure, in the end.

Misunderstanding. The news media is suing X. I pointed out what news media does without paying.
