You can use #280characters only if you linked your Twitter account with Aadhaar. Correct me!— Bharath Bhushan (BB) (@DigitalBharath) September 27, 2017

I didn’t have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.

Thank you, Twitter, for #280characters. Now men will be able to use the full 100 exclamation points they need to silence women properly.

This is a small change, but a big move for us. 140 was an arbitrary choice based on the 160 character SMS limit. Proud of how thoughtful the team has been in solving a real problem people have when trying to tweet. And at the same time maintaining our brevity, speed, and essence! https://t.co/TuHj51MsTu
