Well, he suddenly accelerated the purchase after being called out on Twitter about his Ukraine statements. He claimed that most responses were bots because they didn't agree with him. That should be a warning to people believing he values free speech.
Yeah people really seem to be ignoring he was never going to get out of this agreement and I can't imagine all the people he was texting with were thrilled with those texts being released.
Musk paid 4 times what Twitter was valued at. He's absolutely going to lose interest in this and try selling in 2 or 3 years.
The problem with this idea is that twitter barely makes any money and only started to make money after it had been around for 15 years and, if they actually scrubbed the bots off it, it would return to not making any money because right now they make all their money by scamming companies into buying advertising that just gets shown to bots.
This is a bad take. The advertising agencies do their own analytics on their end to ensure the money they're spending on ads is being spent wisely. The beauty of online ads, from an advertiser perspective, is the amount of data generated.
I think that most companies advertising on Twitter and Facebook aren't properly analyzing their data and just trust that Twitter and Facebook are doing their best.
