Hi folks,

I'm having a huge decrease in my location filter at streaming api. Apparently it's only retrieving tweets with Lat/Long and just a few of those with place_name only.

Is there a change on the filter location policy?

This problem starts at 2011-02-16 01:00:00 UTC, here's my count sample With/Without Lat/Long information:

month day hour WithoutLatLong WithLatLong
2 16 12 0 38
2 16 11 106 27890
2 16 10 104 25026
2 16 9 109 21680
2 16 8 129 21252
2 16 7 141 23906
2 16 6 85 23622
2 16 5 67 24928
2 16 4 76 26288
2 16 3 3498 29309
2 16 2 8413 28783

2 15 9 13815 23260
2 15 8 14880 23609
2 15 7 15560 25008

Thanks.

I am seeing the same thing
My searches have dropped to ZERO as of
2011-02-15 22:56:34

I have a relatively small location boundary box
but have been averaging 1200 a day

Same here. Output of my location filter decreased by about 50%.

Cross posting this reply as it is relevant. 

Our support team confirms that Tweeting with locations is disabled at the moment.

When the service is restored @support will post an update.
