Twitter....done?

Who yhe fck cares about Twitter? What I do care about is $1B dollars. That money could have been used for so much good! Fck Elon!
I like Tesla and SpaceX. Elon is a visionary and people like him coming to the USA to set up shop is what makes America great.
But I also thought the Twitter thing would happen, so I have to tote that L.
Yes, because I'm sure it's public information that twitter is dying to share
We all know that trolls, both bots and organized trolls, are a huge problem on social media. It's not a stretch to imagine that there are far more than what they are willing to admit, or even know about in the first place. If anything, Twitter probably doesn't even want to know.
IG with the sound off, all the time. Not once have I heard a song that actually fit the post and that wasn't bubblegum pop garbage
it’ll always be good for sharing this type of crap
I find this all factually accurate, but it doesn't really address afoaf's point. Everyone who hasn't given their bank account information to minor Nigerian royalty knew this seven years ago, including and especially Elon Musk.Yes, because I'm sure it's public information that twitter is dying to share

The whole stock market taking a sh!t hypothesis our boy posited sounds far more plausible than Elon wanted to know how many bots there actually were. More due diligence goes into leash string purchases if he agreed to that sum without knowing the bot population. Twitter's one redeeming feature is it's very useful for lazy data mining.
How is that obvious when I dont give a ratscass. I Never use it!Obviously you care

I wrote that.In hindsight these tweets seem important.
IMO the world would be a better place if Twitter went out of business completely. It's too much a platform for insane crazies. Twitter and social media has a function, I mean, imagine if Trump used Twitter for good? He had an unfiltered channel straight to the American people and he used it for...forum.surfer.com

I dont use it. However you've made a lot of posts on the subject, so this seems like it's important to you
Musk ripping the sh!t out of Tesla to do it intrests me because I fucking knew he would never buy it and was just shitting $1B to get attentionI dont use it. However you've made a lot of posts on the subject, so this seems like it's important to you
I guess you didn't see the YouTube video saying he was a fraud?
I get all my info from YouTube.
You are like my sister. She judges people by what they do and not how they look.
If you read the letter from his representation, twitter agreed to provide the tools for Musk team to do their own analysis. When twitter did they throttled it to make it useless.
This merger/purchase is obviously the work of an erratic and eccentric Musk. But if the spam accounts exceed 5% and it's shown that this was easily identified there are real civil and criminal problems for twitter execs. Now that its in court both sides are going to have to defend their position. If this data was falsified the stock will crash, executives heads will roll and the SEC is going to start throwing haymakers. If it's much ado about nothing they will get the break up fee from Musk, I think it's a billion and a better deal for Musk than buying Twitter for the purchase price.
My guess is absent some pretty nefarious under reporting or real numbers, which I doubt....There's a renegotiation and Musk offers to buy at a discount. Will the shareholders agree? Doubtful initially but probably if the offer is good long term..
If there was some willful underreporting or spam accounts Twitter will probably go for the option of a long multi year legal battle in order to get their house in order before the SEC comes knocking.
I don't see how twitter survives. There's nothing in this that is good news for their revenue base...ad buyers. They will flee. They already all know the twitter ad reach is dogshit and this gives them the excuse to bail.
insta died imo when they started showing stuff you dont subscribe to because its similar to stuff you do subscribe to. if i cant properly edit my feed then it worthless.
also stories took over the platform - no one i want to follow makes actual posts anymore and the stories are all disposable. dont get me started on the sharing. every surf feed posts the exact same clip over and over. why?
it went downhill as soon as it turned away from the "post a picture from your phone" platform. once it involved in facebook light - it was over. once people started posting professional pictures, it was over. using it to market was the final nail.
twitter has always been shite. just never got it.
