Kanye hates Twitter for a number of reasons, including its tendency to invade the privacy of its users. "Everything that Twitter offers I need less of," Kanye famously 'spazzed' in May.
NIN identity Trent Reznor has a different gripe. Kanye has never had an account, while Reznor has been a heavy user - and is now burning out. "The problem with really getting engaged in a community is getting through the clutter and noise," Reznor blogged. In the case of Twitter, that means endless dribble and hatred from unidentified accounts, and few filters.
But the problem affects broader social media. "I will be tuning out of the social networking sites because at the end of the day it's now doing more harm than good in the bigger picture and the experiment seems to have yielded a result. Idiots rule," Reznor stated during a recent ramble of a blog.
On the issue of privacy, Reznor described the shift in perception that may have followed his tweets. Instead of a hard-edged or carefully shaped identity, fans were given tweets from a singer-in-love, something Reznor was hardly apologetic for. "If this has bummed you out or destroyed what you've projected on me, fair enough - it's probably time for you to leave," Reznor continued. Moving forward, Reznor will retread his Twitter account into a one-way feed of NIN-related updates.
