The combination of Twitter's short messages, high volumes and "always logged in" style of use make it easy for internet pests (and worse) to pepper victims with the internet abuse equivalent of never-ending birdshot from a auto-repeating shotgun that never runs out of ammunition.

UK journalist Caroline Criado-Perez found this out to her personal alarm recently.
