That wording sounds to me like they could (and would) terminate recognized blue-checkmark account names, and allow them to be registered by ANYONE. Leaving them open to nefarious users stealing the open account, and presuming to be the original user. The ramifications of are terrifying.

I think you're overestimating the importance of Twitter if you find this terrifying. You sound like these pedos freaking out about deep fakes.

Yep, it is kinda worrisome that respected accounts could be taken over by who the fuck knows because twitter will RELEASE the accounts back into the pool for registration. Do you really want the likes of Chunk Yogurt taking over the account of someone like Trump Jr?
