:lolbron: Actually he paid $14 Billion from it. The other $30 Billion is from the Saudis, the Chinese, the Russians and Big Banks that he sold them into thinking he can make a profit from. The funny shyt though... when he bought it, he paid 3x Twitter's worth.

Its not like they want their money with interest back...

Wildest thing about the whole Brazil Supreme Court vs. Elon Musk fight is that it’s the first time in the history of the world that a nation’s highest court served somebody a writ of summons (order to appear in court) ***ON TWITTER***

2/6
Alexandre de Moraes aka XandĂŁo is afrontoso.

3/6
Breaking News: XandĂŁo has just blocked Starlink bank accounts in Brazil to pay Twitter fines.

4/6
Didn’t know that de Moraes also did irony, or would this qualify as sarcasm?

Brazil’s X ban is sending lots of people to Bluesky​


Brazilian users seem to be turning to Bluesky in droves while they can’t use X.​

X is currently banned in Brazil following an order from a Supreme Court justice, and Brazilian users seem to be turning to Bluesky, an alternate social network, in droves.
“Brazil, you’re setting new all-time-highs for activity on Bluesky!” the official Bluesky account says in a post.
“There will almost certainly be some outages and performance issues,” Bluesky developer Paul Frazee says. “We’ve never seen traffic like this. Hang with us!”


The Bluesky app looks and functions a lot like X, but it’s a decentralized social media platform that’s built on the AT Protocol (which is also developed by Bluesky). In a 5:12PM ET post, Frazee says that Bluesky is seeing 1,000 events per second — a “new milestone” — on its “relay,” which essentially functions as the firehose of data for the platform.

Mastodon (another decentralized platform) and Meta (the corporation that runs Threads, which has links to the fediverse) didn’t immediately reply to a request for comment about whether they’re seeing increased usage as well.

a lot of brazillian artists and animators who do commissioned work on twitter. the longer this goes on for, the more fans will be encouraged to join whatever platform their favorite creators post content on.

How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
Still making him enough money to keep it running
Have you seen the list of owners that he put together to buy it? It was never about “making money” because god knows they are hemorrhaging money, but the misinfo/racism/narratives are worth more than any amount of money. The investors are a list of the worst people on earth, and they have direct access to not only millions of users information, but a platform to keep low iq fukking idiots drunk on hatred and fear porn.
