I'm seeing this get shared around. If you're not doing even a cursory Google of any information coming out of Twitter during this fiasco then what are you even doing.

The only advice I can offer the current incarnation of twitter is to redirect the main page to a picture of FiestaCat.jpg in a broadcast Test Pattern with the words "PLEASE STAND BY" with a cartoon Elon Musk being chased by lawyers

I love the "let that sink in" angle because it's like... Elon, they forced you to buy their company after you bluffed. The only one that needs to let anything sink in.. Is you. You're the butt of the joke.

Isn't this a FTC violation because they just violated the privacy of 7500+ ex-employees. A lot of whom are in California that has it;s own laws about that. And there's no one at Twitter right now who can respond to the FTC.

kw0134 posted:We are legitimately in uncharted legal territory. Defamation might be in the cards for whoever created the account and tweeted out "we're assholes who shouldn't be charging for insulin," particularly since they used a handle that made it look official. Damages would be limited to the PR cleanup though, since stock prices recovered. But it's still a real harm. I'm always ready for a legalese filled post

they fired half their staff, let's naively assume they only burn $2m/day instead of $4m now and earn $1m per month from blue. to reach the target of half their money coming from subscriptions instead of ads, they only need to increase the price of blue by 30x, so $240/mo, and keep all current subscribers and get all their advertisers back. everyone doubted elon but you have to admit the plan is taking shape.

I suck at math but 1.1 million dollars, assuming they only get 70% of those 8 bucks because 30% goes to Apple (you can only buy it through the iOS app, right?)... that's 200 thousand subscriptions? I may be very wrong here.

I don't know what you are talking about. With the widespread press coverage and discussions about the new service all over Twitter, they've been able to convert 0.03% of their user base! Everything is going great! Now they just need to increase that conversion rate by 1000x within the next month. No problem at all!

You always wanted one of those right? Everybody wants them! Under the old management those were reserved for so-called officials and important people representing brands and governments. Some stinky elitist club! But not anymore! Look at mr. VIP there. Blue tick! verified! BONA FIDE member of the blue tick society! Much better. No?

I wouldn't be surprised if in an act of desperation in the next week or two he just says "gently caress it!" and only allows people who have paid for the blue check mark to post at all.
