Gift Link: How Elon Musk Got Tangled Up in Blue

How Elon Musk Got Tangled Up in Blue​

Twitter Blue, a revamped subscription service that let users buy verified badges, was the first big test for the platform’s new owner. It didn’t go well.

Seems anti-free market to amplify small accounts that cannot generate interest in their content on their own.

Elon and the right attempting to use sXitter to influence politics and elections. Shockingly, their claims against the left and Jack Dorsey were projection as always.

Also, there's no better example of a large sXitter account having too much influence than Elon's own. I'm sure he'll get around to deprioritizing his account in the algorithm any day now...
 
Also an article in the NYT today about SF saying good riddance to Twitter.

I wish Elon would design a submarine for him and Trump to take a very very deep dive in! Not that anything bad would happen to him but maybe they'd get stranded like the Boeing astronauts at least until 2026-27?

Elon Musk says X staff can get their stock — if they prove they deserve it

They’ll have to write a one-page email.

Elon Musk sent an email to X staff overnight about their much-anticipated stock grants — but there’s a catch.
In an email to staff viewed by The Verge, the company is planning to award stock options based on the anticipated impact of employees. That means staff have to submit a one-page summary telling leadership their contributions to the company in order to get their stock.


These long-awaited stock grants add to the tensions between X leadership and staff after the promotions process was recently delayed without explanation, we previously reported. Given how the company formerly called Twitter has continued to struggle under Elon Musk’s ownership, employees have been bracing for more layoffs.
What’s more, a source at X told The Verge that the company still owes staff their annual equity refresher, which was supposed to be doled out in April. Musk previously assured employees that they could regularly cash out stock, similar to SpaceX staff, according to two employees. However, he has not yet followed through on this promise.
 
I left Twitter after Musk purchased it. Mostly because I am worried about protection of my privacy. With this new info coming out about his fellow “investors” I am even more happy that I quit posting there. Just wish I could erase my history on Twitter.

Godspeed to the researchers who spent hours typing “a photo of JD Vance stuffing a ballot box” and “a photo of Tim Walz having a secret meeting with George Soros” into a chatbot prompt.
