Because a celebrity has clout to make a big stink of it. The headline isn't only "Mean twitter took account from user!" but contains "He got zero dollars for it." as if he was entitled to that in any way.
I believe that too, but look at the replies - there are people who literally believe they own their account or compare it to personal property or their bank accounts.
We must be in different threads because I'm not seeing that. Unless you want to stretch that one comment about identity theft or the one about banking a fair bit.
Then you might actually be in a different thread. One guy believes this is the same as the bank taking their money and never returning it and another one believes this is like taking people's belongings because they enter your property.
