They are introducing a way to broadcast mentions without using .@, which is great. So why also making non-reply mentions forcefully broadcasted, with no way to hide them!?&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#x27;t want my @ThreeUKSupport tweets to go to all my followers.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Coming soon: express even more in 140 characters</title><url>https://blog.twitter.com/express-even-more-in-140-characters?hn20160524</url></story>
