Google decimates Twitter search results after Elon Musk imposes limits on reading tweets
rawstory.com
Google has reportedly removed much of Twitter's links from its search results after the social network's owner Elon Musk announced reading tweets would be limited.
Search Engine Roundtable found that Google had removed 52% of Twitter links since the crackdown began last week. Twitter now blocks users who are not logged in and sets limits on reading tweets.
According to Barry Schwartz, Google reported 471 million Twitter URLs as of Friday. But by Monday morning, that number had plummeted to 227 million.
"For normal indexing of these Twitter URLs, it seems like these tweets are dropping out of the sky," Schwartz wrote.
Platformer reported last month that Twitter refused to pay its bill for Google Cloud services.

Buying Twitter and tanking it lets him write off a huge amount of money for 2023 and get his taxes back from the previous year.
Also he gets to leverage Tesla stock as the company is growing more fiscally viable... Why does that matter? Why sell before it takes off??
Elon bought Twitter with $12.5bn in loans... Secured with the same value of Tesla stock. He didn't sell it...
So it's almost free money. If the stock takes off he can make out like a bandit, pay the loan off with 1/2 the value of the real stock once it rises, but despite making money can still claim an overall loss on Twitter....
This is why he doesn't give a fark if Twitter lives or dies. If Twitter dies it's a write off, but because half the investment is literally a loan against Tesla stock he still treats it like free money...
There's a cap on loss deductions, billionaires don't care about deducting losses. Also he didn't buy it with Tesla stock, he put up Tesla stock as collateral.
Right....stock as collateral in a loan.
It's amazing what bullshit Billionaires can do.
Also those losses are per corporate entity so he gets to use those caps multiple times on each corporation and on himself.
