Let me get this straight… Media Matters: (1) created a new account. (2) followed a bunch of RW extremists. (3) refreshed the timeline to see what ads were placed against extremist content. And (4) published the results? Definitely take this one all the way to the Supreme Court, Elon. No notes.
The first amendment just says "free speach", not "free speech and stay wealthy" or "free speech and everyone will like you" I think elon will start saving his urine in jars pretty soon
I wish I could enjoy the humour in this more.
Love to completely undermine my lawsuit threat even as I make that threat. I am the world’s smartest man!
It would have taken the "median user" (undefined) 13 days to refresh it as much as this account did in a day. Okay. He claims the exact post/ad combos occurred a handful of times. Okay, so he's saying that the ads get placed next to other nazi accounts which this mmfa account doesn't follow?
And somehow MMFA just happened to be looking that one time we showed Nazi material next to an ad for a major company.
The same Musk that banned two phrases yesterday? That Musk?
Twitter was extremely happy with all of this until the publishing the results part. That part is a very serious offense.
I've long said Musk is not smart, in that he seems unwilling to learn from anything that pushes against his set assumptions. This seems another example, as he got his ass KICKED in discovery in previous suits he's filed.
Not content to vaporize a few tens of his billions of $ by tanking Twitter, Elmo seems determined to destroy his own reputation as a sooper geenious as well. Please proceed, governor.
