As much as I hate twitter, I think this is a bad thing. As far as I can tell, the suit is about those uploading music to twitter, which counts as sharing of content and shouldn’t be illegal.
Unless I am missing something, if the lawsuit went through, it would be a terrible thing for everyone.
When I read the article basically every other social platform has struck licensing deals with record companies because it adds monetary value to their sites… they aren’t trying to stop content creators they are trying to get a piece of the money pie Facebook, youtube and twitch make off of content that’s uploaded… I don’t know if it would have further reaching consequences but Twitter was in the middle of a deal when Elon took over and somehow this got pushed to the side and the record companies are now suing twitter…

I don’t like Elon as much as the next person, but I dislike the music industry cronies even more. Yeah, I’d agree this is bad.
As much as I hate Twitter I hate music publishers even more

Twitch actually ran into a similar issue just recently, IIRC. I don’t recall if it ever made it to court, though. https://www.theverge.com/2020/10/26/21534983/riaa-copyright-twitch-streamers-licensing-letter
Yup, as much as Vulcan hates Elon, music industry is even more greedy.
It’s unclear here if you are using “should” in the descriptive or prescriptive.
