Twitter and Musk

Maybe Ron DeSantis will slip on a banana peel later today and hurt his back.

That will be a good day for you.

Elon bought a company for 44 billion and took it private.

I assume that he will do many things - on the plus and minus side- that are 100% Elon. Duh.

I do not necessarily follow them at the level of detail that your psyche seems to require.

Put on a trade, get a job or something.

Many Musk fan boys and fan girls are waking up to the harsh reality about their idol now. But you just go forward with pimping him, whatever.

A laid-off Twitter manager, who was one of Elon Musk's most loyal employees, tweeted 'cruelty is the worst' in an apparent dig at the tech mogul

  • Ex-Twitter manager Esther Crawford tweeted "cruelty is the worst" in an apparent dig at Elon Musk.
  • Musk had accused a former director of using his disability as an "excuse" to do "no actual work."
  • Crawford was reportedly laid off last month. She was seen as one of Musk's most loyal workers.


P.S. -- Considering the high-heeled shoes Ron DeSantis keeps wearing -- just like the transgenders -- he is likely to fall without the need for a banana peel.

EU Tells Elon Musk to Hire More Staff to Moderate Twitter - FT
https://money.usnews.com/investing/...usk-to-hire-more-staff-to-moderate-twitter-ft

(Reuters) - The European Union told Elon Musk to hire more human moderators and fact-checkers to review posts on Twitter, the Financial Times reported on Tuesday, citing four people familiar with talks between Musk, Twitter executives and regulators in Brussels.

The demand complicates Musk's efforts to reorganize the loss-making business he acquired for $44 billion in October. He has slashed more than half of Twitter's 7,500 staff, including the entire trust and safety teams in some offices, while seeking cheaper methods to monitor tweets, the report said.

The massive layoffs have raised concerns if Twitter can comply with the EU's Digital Services Act that requires internet platforms to put specific measures in place against illegal content, before the law comes into full effect in early 2024.

Twitter has been leaning heavily on automation to moderate content, doing away with certain manual reviews. It does not employ fact checkers, unlike larger rival Meta Platforms Inc, which owns Facebook and Instagram, the report said.

European Union industry chief Thierry Breton on a video call in January warned Musk of "huge work ahead" for Twitter to apply transparent use policies, significantly reinforce content moderation and protect freedom of speech.

Maybe Twitter will file for bankruptcy and discharge the 100 million or some portion of it and this fellow will take it up the arse.

It's not like Musk pays any of his bills. There are nine or more vendors currently suing Musk and Twitter now for non-payment. Haraldur Thorleifsson will most likely have to sue Musk and Twitter to get his contractual compensation -- and then get in line behind everyone else.

Chief Twit Musk is not even paying his Amazon web services bill -- Twitter "relies on Amazon’s cloud services for key aspects of its platform"; it is hard to see how Twitter will remain operational if Amazon cuts the service.

Additionally Amazon has stopped all advertising on Twitter. This amounts to millions of revenue lost for Twitter.

Musk is really no different than Donald Trump in his business practices.

Let's take a look at how Haraldure "Halli" Thorleifsson took Elon Musk out to the woodshed and spanked & publicly humiliated Musk on his own platform... to the point where Musk was forced to apologize. It's quite the Master Class on how to deal with narcissistic bullies outlined by leading business publication, Inc.
