You’d have to agree that the current owners are “controlling the defacto public square” a magnitude less than the previous ones. I don’t think asking a tiny % of twitter users to use their products interfaces instead of third parties is very controlling, but shadow banning, and censoring topics is incredibly.

Twitter makes a great news reader. Never read replies. Facebook is cancer.

I agree it does seem folks are reevaluating their social life, lucky that was happening before Elon.

The point is they didn’t complain because they were aligned with the people asking them to handle, and they also handled it real quick, not stand tos report flow for sure.

He is pushing the limits (and maybe finding them) of how quickly you can correct head count in a larger company. We won’t know if his actual vision for the product is bad until he gets done with this transitional period and can start releasing updates. Basically I’d argue not much happened yet but HR meetings.

ICU nurses wear N95 masks that are fitted and tested (a bad tasting/smelling aerosol is used). It is completely sealed around the face. This is how my SIL did COVID ICU for 1.5 years every week without contracting it. Not the same as the one size fits all n95 people loosely place on their faces.

I’d say very likely canceled quietly. Otherwise they are just taking the punishment twice, there isn’t a change they could make that would allow them to go live with this kind of thing at a later date and not get raked over the coals.

Do you recall who the service provider was for the organization. Like SportEngine (owned by NBC) etc…?

I think this is a major issue since most are large companies that can and will sell that data to highest bidder.
