Now that @elonmusk has officially bought @Twitter, some thoughts:
1️⃣ Will the extent of shadow-banning and ideological censorship at Twitter be investigated and made public? Transparency and accountability call for the facts to be laid bare.
2️⃣ Will competent product managers be hired at the company? Features introduced on Twitter frequently resembled the output of drunk monkeys not dissimilar from Dilbert cartoons. Basic product usability has stagnated for years.
3️⃣ How will Musk walk the tightrope between allowing free speech on the platform and not running afoul of hate-speech laws? It's not easy, to be sure. Then there are overly sensitive governments that are allergic to criticism.
4️⃣ To what extent will the 'algorithm' be junked in favour of a more organic, unmanipulated feed that users want?
5️⃣ How will the Deep State respond? That they will, is not in question. How viciously, remains open.
Let's see what November brings 🙂
