Twitter gotta do something about these imposters. People’s reputations are at stake!

I’d go far to say it’s the main problem. Musk is a social media idiot, but if he didn’t have to turn around a profit so quickly he wouldn’t have to fire half the company and make up hair brained schemes to make money quickly. I don’t know if he would have made twitter better or worse, but adding on the leveraged buyout debt problem certainly makes all the ways he’s making it worse far worse

Musk should have charged for the ability to send DMs.

He really thinks they will ban people fast enough.

I already saw a 20 minute guide where you can completely and anonymously create a new twitter account and pay for it, as often as you choose.

He’s so cartoonishly idiotic it’s easy to lose sight of of massive this deal was! The RJR / Nabisco LBO was $25 billion, or roughly the same size adjusted for inflation, and it is legendary.

I’m wondering how many people are going to spend the $8 then do a chargeback when they get banned.

They seem to have figured this out:

Anything io prevent the braintrust at pre-elon twitter from just recreating the formula with their billions?

If Musk was careful, he probably had them all sign non-competes as part of the buyout. So probably not!

Had the same thought, or go through the refund process through apple. What a time to be alive.

California bans that shit I believe.

LOL if new Twitter comes out and Elon becomes a patent troll.

IANAL but I think that applies to employees, but may not apply to cases when you are buying someone out who won’t be an employee.

At first I thought no, this joke is too stupid to make but stupid is relative, so what the hell. Why did Twitter’s bluebird cross the road?

Elon Musk tried to fuck it.

I have really enjoyed the last couple weeks. Musk getting his ass handed to him. Promising elections. GOP civil war. STONKS. Way to go everyone!
