No he shouldn't. He should just do nothing. Let Twitter die already. Also those are all so obviously AI generated images lol
I'm sorry, I can't agree that nothing should be done. I would love Twitter to die, but these scams are actively hurting people. They are criminals and must be stopped and Twitter is doing nothing about it, even when Elon himself is used as bait.
The biggest scammer of them all runs Twitter, so don't get your hopes up too high.
I'm not hopeful at all. If anything, it will get worse.
I'm hopeful it will get worse.
Maybe to someone who's online and knows what to spot it is. For a normie, it's good enough to pass off as authentic.
You and I wind up subsidizing these scams, as victims can fall into the social safety net.
Unlike here, where all the celebrities are 100% real, take it from me.
I loved you in that thing!
Thank you for loving me in that thing too!
Not in that other thing though. So happy you made that thing after it. Soooooo good! You were robbed of that Oscar.
Elon doesn't have to do anything. People need to leave Twitter.
I bet Elon Musk is wondering if it can be monetized.
He is monetizing it. That’s one of the article’s main points.
Pet peeve of mine: nothing about this is “ironic.”
If the author really wants an adverb, I’d probably go with “unsurprisingly.”
They don't know what the word means. They honestly seem to think that the word ironic means slightly funny.
I think "incidentally" would fit quite well here
Just like Security can’t stop every spam email, Twitter can’t stop every falsehood on its service. Both should try, though. Twitter has metrics and can put a stop to trending tweets that are clearly disinformation.
Elon fired that team the moment he bought Twitter.
🤦
It sure was less of a problem before MElon took over.
They had a method of filtering this out before. That's what verification badges were lol. Now it's just a checkmark saying you're a loser who paid to get boosted on social media, and deserve to get bullied for supporting the alt-right.
Terrible.
He's a sociopath. He won't care until it costs him money.
Isn't it already costing him money? I find it very hard to believe there hasn't been a dip in ad revenue since all this madness started.
He doesn't care. He only bought Twitter with Saudi money so that he could trash it and help prevent another Arab Spring.
Step 1.
Create Mastodon Instance specifically to cater to oppressed people in oppressive regimes.
Step 2.
Create bots to emulate dissidents.
Step 3.
Sell instance to oppressive regimes for $$$
Step 4.
Rinse and Repeat.
I could only imagine what a Bear Grylls scam would look like.
"If you donate one pisscoin to my wallet I'll promise to double it!"
Elon is a social media Genius!
If no one is willing to leave the platform, he doesn’t have to do anything.
No he shouldn't. He should just do nothing. Let Twitter die already. Also those are all so obviously AI generated images lol
