I still have a Twilio account, for my steampunk Teletype setup. It's a pure reply system - you text to a phone number, that's printed on a Teletype machine, and the sender gets an acknowledgement back. It's inbound SMS. Years ago, at Twilio's request, I demoed this at a Twilio convention.
Twilio now wants me to "register my marketing campaign" and pay an additional monthly "campaign" charge for the service. Their business model no longer comprehends a pure request-reply service. They now assume their customers want to spam.
How many random devices out there should they have laying around in case someone writes an extension that involves sending data to those devices? The Kindle accesses the internet through a WiFi network -- this would be required to test the functionality in the extension. Their security team should vet all of these devices, create environments where it's safe for them to be on the network, and ensure they're kept up to date also?

Yes? How else would they test anything?Deleted Comment
