Protesters holding hash-tagged decorated signs like "Shame On Twitter" and "Respect Our Communities"
gathered outside of Twitter headquarters this morning at 10am to protest what they see as an unfair tax cut and requests for other concessions made by Twitter to the city of San Francisco. The protests have since dissipated.
The demonstrations were called by an organization called the
South of Market Community Action Network (
SOMCAN) that aims to represent poor and underserved communities. SOMCAN also
asked protestors to tweet
"SHAME on YOU!" for being "socially irresponsible" at Twitter in addition to picketing in real life. Even though about 50 people showed up in person, thus far no tweets have been sent.
