  1. Dear ccm,
  2.  
  3. In recent weeks, Twitter announced policy changes* that will affect how
  4. applications and users like yourself can interact with Twitter's data. As a
  5. result of these changes, on September 27th we will be removing all Twitter
  6. Triggers, disabling your ability to push tweets to places like email, Evernote
  7. and Facebook. All Personal and Shared Recipes using a Twitter Trigger will also
  8. be removed. Recipes using Twitter Actions and your ability to post new tweets
  9. via IFTTT will continue to work just fine.
  10.  
  11. At IFTTT, first and foremost, we want to empower anyone to create connections
  12. between literally anything. We've still got a long way to go, and to get there
  13. we need to make sure that the types of connections that IFTTT enables are
  14. aligned with how the original creators want their tools and services to be
  15. used.
  16.  
  17. We at IFTTT are big Twitter fans and, like yourself, we've gotten a lot of
  18. value out of the Recipes that use Twitter Triggers. We're sad to see them go,
  19. but remain excited to build features that work within Twitter's new policy.
  20. Thank you for your support and for understanding these upcoming changes. If you
  21. have any questions or concerns, please contact us at support@ifttt.com.

  27. *These Twitter policy changes specifically disallow uploading Twitter Content
  28. to a "cloud based service" (Section 4A https://dev.twitter.com/terms/api-terms)
  29. and include stricter enforcement of the Developer Display Requirements (https:/
  30. /dev.twitter.com/terms/display-requirements).
