He needs the advertising money, the company makes 3 billion in profit a year. If he continues that it would take 14 years to make a return on his money.

profit or revenue?

He was already a shareholder

Also Alwaleed's been pretty quiet since MBS locked him up in Ritz-Carlton for few months. I remember him being all in the videos before

It’s simple, Kids don’t use twitter and celebrities don’t use twitters

They are the ones that drive engagement.

If they do it to all politicians, it 'll be interesting to see who ends up deleting tweets because it was severely misleading or an outright lie.

A Twitter user tweeted Musk on Friday that the Oversight Board established by the owner of Facebook and Instagram was a “losing game” because it did not satisfy people on the right or left of the political spectrum. In reply, Musk wrote that a “better idea” might be to select a version of Twitter in the style of choosing a film based on its content rating.

He wrote: “Being able to select which version of Twitter you want is probably better, much as it would be for a movie maturity rating.”

Musk added that that rating of a user’s tweet could be self-selected and then “modified by user feedback”.

Musk also responded positively to a tweet suggesting that the platform has different modes as in video gaming. A user said the platform could have a PvP (player versus player) mode “where you can start beef and mob each other on verified personal accounts”, then a “roleplaying” mode for anonymous accounts with minimal moderation and a heavily moderated “normal Twitter” for everyone else.

Musk wrote that “something like this makes sense”, having indicated that he was examining such a strategy last week. In a message to Twitter advertisers on Thursday, Musk said a user should be able to “choose your desired experience according to your preferences”.

Good to see he still has no idea what to do with Twitter. He's scrolling through his replies looking for ways to make it work

What a great article this shyt might blow up in his face

He’s going to ruin himself all because trump got banned

I wonder what will happen with trending topics? A lot of people don't know this but Twitter's first efforts on content moderation weren't in banning prominent users but throttling certain trending topics that violated the ToS.

I think it started back in 2010 or so when #UnBonJuif (a good Jew) was trending in French Twitter. You can imagine the filth that was tweeted with this hashtag. So certain trending terms obviously get suppressed....

We will see, if #BlackCrime trends for a few days in a row we know where this is going.

Wasn’t the n word trending literally the first day he purchased twitter?

All that stress. All that money. We might be soon looking towards the retro Musk 99' Throwback Hairline.
