Everyone who signed the petition should close their Twitter accounts. And write their newspapers that they would cancel their subscriptions if the articles quoted or embedded tweets. I didn't sign any petition, and I'm already doing it. Well, sort of. I didn't have any Twitter account ro close.

write their newspapers that they would cancel their subscriptions if the articles quoted ... tweets.

Given the former and future president of the USA's habit of announcing policies there, that seems unworkable.
