Elon Musk said on Friday that users of the site formerly known as Twitter will no longer be able to block unwanted followers from responding to their posts.
It’s already been noted elsewhere that this will directly violate Apple’s and Google’s app store policies. The X app should be immediately pulled as a result.
Literally look at how much attention it’s getting him!
Never mind the real goal - he’s got an established far reaching platform, he doesn’t care about those leaving it, he cares about those staying, that’s who he’s pandering to - the bigots and the companies openly willing to do business with bigots. And he now has his own media outlet that is aimed directly at them.
People think he’s just some clueless manchild, and while he is the latter, he’s definitely not the former, he knows exactly what he’s doing, and that’s building up an empire to secure his power indefinitely.

A single character app name also violated Apple’s policies until a few weeks ago, so…
Just shows that if you’re rich enough laws, regulations, and even the rules & procedures of private companies need not apply.
True.
Hahah, Google and Apple lack the backbone to do this.

Probably easier just waiting for X to go bankrupt.
Elon Musk has enough money to keep Twitter alive indefinetely.
It isn’t clear that he does. If he did, he wouldn’t have needed to
dupe::ahem:: “persuade” investors to bankroll his takeover.@silvercove
Yes, but seeing as he didn’t just use his money to buy the damned thing in the first place, why would he do it to save the company now?

I expect you’re right. I hope we’re wrong.
