I'd love to be able to see the deets, but I guess I'm "not authorized to view these tweets"? Pretty sure I'm not banned or blocked, since I've never had an account. Do you have to log in now just to see anything on Twitter, or is that a user setting now?

ETA: Yup, they broke something. I can see it from desktop too, but on this iOS 9.3.5 device, every tweet from any user shows that message, and any other Twitter URI bounces me to mobile and then gives "Sorry, Twitter is taking too long to load" with a "try again" button that doesn't work.

Web 2.0 at its best. Thanks for all the helpful responses!

I can see it even in an anon browser session:

    .@USPS @USPSHelp Thanks, I found my missing package ... label. Your employees ripped it off the box and stole a $10,000 package from me. pic.twitter.com/LfuPZ9vZ8U

here are the two pics posted: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C4wfEKCVcAATKva.jpg https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C4wfEssVcAANYlw.jpg

That is so painful to read. On the one hand, USPS is apologising for the inconvenience, on the other hand they're shifting blame away from themselves by recommending to use more tape?

Yeah that letter is basically blaming me, the recipient, for them damaging the sender's package in transit. Truly there is no end to USPS' classiness.

Sounds right. They're okay for first-class mail, but you don't really want to trust them with anything of significant value; while theft is relatively unlikely, mishandling is in my experience quite common.

If for some reason you can't see the tweet, it's archived here: http://archive.is/nQNlE

That being said, I could see the tweet just fine.

I think Twitter shows that when a tweet has been deleted.

There's no login required for viewing anything that is otherwise accessible on Twitter.

I can see it from an anonymous browser window, from my work connection and also from my cellphone connection.

nope, works without login. try a proxy?
