X really wants you to forget about Twitter.

X’s new terms of service insist that tweets are now posts::X is rolling out a new terms of service on September 29th, and one adjustment is a single instance of “retweet” to “repost.” There are other changes regarding data scraping and class action lawsuits.

    Yeah, from what I understand, he said he was going to buy it, then changed his mind, then the shareholders sued him because I guess there was a tentative deal.

    Just shows me that Elon doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing, so spez looks up to him now? Yeah, I’m lost too.

      The board sued because the insane price he proposed was a much better monetary outcome for shareholders than waiting for Twitter itself to become profitable. But was a much worse outcome for its employees, users, and the rest of us…

        Oh those poor poor “users”. Remember kids, if you’re not paying for the service, you’re not the user, you’re the product.
