Twitter’s negative users appear to have scared away a celebrity tweeter, Rolling Stone reports. Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor delighted some fans by using his 140 characters to announce collaborations, diss Chris Cornell, and raise money for charity. But the social network is “now doing more harm than good,” Reznor writes on the group’s site. “The experiment seems to have yielded a result. Idiots rule.”
“I decided to lower the curtain a bit and let you see more of my personality,” says Reznor, who singled out the Metal Sludge community as particularly malicious. “I watched some of you get more engaged because you started to realize there’s a person back there, and I watched some of you recoil in horror because I’m not what you projected on me.” (More Trent Reznor stories.)
