And now, when the law is finally catching up to them, do we get to the part where a higher power, God, is on their side.

Bits of data, ie user accounts when viewed singularly or in small numbers are information. In the 100 000s to millions, they become intelligence.
Do they do the same if you download Firefox? I remember using IE exclusively to download FF immediately after installing XP, Win 7, 10 or whatever it was.
No but when he Googles himself - which I am sure he does daily, then he’ll know to stay within the confines of his X domain. We’re claiming back the internets. :)
Seriously though, some young person might still look up to him as a space role-model without ever knowing that the guy is a waste of space.
That’s what he wanted everyone to believe - offering 420 jokes as a share price he was willing to pay. He was ready to pay anything & even said so in an interview - that X is not about money, it’s more than that. Though he complained about how much he paid for it, he got a bargain for the ability to centralise, control, monitor & distort the dissemination of knowledge, perception of culture, international wars, to prolong or incite culture wars.
Imagine one guy deciding which governments could use it as an emergency response tool, tracking millions of accounts; many of whom were in positions of influence ie politicians, law enforcement, judiciary, reporters, authors, financial types, companies of all sizes, government agencies, local councils & everything in between.
I remember thinking what a bargain he got that ability for. How much would any dictator pay for this sort of ability?
Reddit had no bluetick businesses, journalists, authors, government reps, entire countries used it for emergency news etc . . . he wanted to destroy those, while shit-posting at the same time.
They do fail - upward. Everyone else gets to bounce off the ground & climb up again, they just move on to something better.
Please make this a post of its own somewhere. I’ve long suspected that the intent was to ruin Twitter for political motives rather than do anything socially constructive with it. Finally, this is undeniable proof from a court of law.
Firefox’s ‘Play in VLC’ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/play-in-vlc/ is brilliant for this - it does entire playlists too. It works with smpalyer, which is even better player than VLC, IMO.
Elon does what he chooses to do. We choose if we want to lend credence to what he chooses to do.
The solution is not in how you describe it but how you run it. The description is merely the vision on which you build or tear down as necessary. Merely saying defund x or y is no basis for evaluation needed for the widespread acceptance which will lead to implementation.
Has Germany ceased to exist? Are their WW2 adversaries oppressing them to this day? Are they confined to an ever-smaller part of their own country? On the contrary, they tore down the physical & ideological walls dividing their country & were welcomed into a union with freedom of movement.
The back-forth here reminds me of The Resistance of WW2. That movement was basically in every European nation that resisted German occupation/expansion. Those nations, by necessity, coalesced into one movement because Germany was the aggressor. The moment WW2 ended, so too ended the various resistance movements as there was nothing left to resist.
The current movement is spent & any traction gained has been lost due to bad messaging. The best thing would be to abandon it altogether, start with a coherent message & go with what you said.
