      Depends on the terms/contract. Since its twitter I’d think they’d have a contract, which states duration and how much they pay. Once they don’t pay, as long as the contract states they can cutoff service, well they cutoff service and/or servers. But again, depends on what’s in said contract.

    The faster Twitter dies, the better. Reddit has a complicated history, but Twitter has done nothing but warp people’s sense of self worth and ideas of what social media is and what their presence should be online. It’s a legacy of violence upon the mind

    Is that the only consequence? What happens if they don’t pay at all, what would Google do? Genuinely asking, I have no clue.

        I expect they’re under some kind of enterprise tier deal so I imagine they’ll get quite a few calls from their account manager before inevitably they just shut off access. This kind of thing happens more often than you’d expect when a company has cashflow issues, they’re probably using many other suppliers as free lines of credit as well.
