Elon f*cks Twitter

Musk's lawyers have responded to Twitter's initial court filing. Here is one analysis, and this report is indicating the response is less than compelling:

Elon Musk’s Response To Twitter’s Legal Filing May Impress His Fans On Twitter, But Is Not A Good Legal Argument

Last week, I wrote about Twitter’s opening legal salvo in its case to try to force Elon Musk to pay the $44 billion he agreed to pay for Twitter (or, more likely, to try to force him to pay a…

As was noted in the Twitter complaint, Musk had texted board chair Bret Taylor and argued one of the key reasons he wanted to take Twitter private was that purging all the spam would make Twitter’s numbers look terrible, and thus was better done as a private company:

On April 9, 2022, the day Musk said he wanted to buy Twitter rather than join its board, he texted Taylor that “purging fake users” from the platform had to be done in the context of a private company because he believed it would “make the numbers look terrible.”

That shows that as he went into the process of buying Twitter, he already fundamentally believed that spam was a massive problem on the site, and that removing the spam accounts would make Twitter’s numbers look awful. That pretty clearly implies that he never believed Twitter’s publicly professed numbers regarding spam mDAU’s.

Lol "Do you know what probably would have actually maximized shareholder value and also been very satisfying? Telling Elon Musk to fuck off."

Yes.... But this is why Elon was offering to overpay for twitter so much. It put the board in a position where the burden of proof was on them to explain how they'd turn down that much money for the share holders. ...with the gift of hindsight, this offer was maybe always a lie so now the best thing for them to do is to go after that billion dollar breakup fee that they are entitled to.

I don’t think he thought about it in terms other than grandstanding.

It's like watching the Patriots play the Astros. I can't decide which one I want to lose more.

(Apologies to Houstonians and New Englanders -- I know those teams aren't your fault.)

Though realistically speaking the patriots would likely win since baseball doesn't have the armour.

But the armor doesn't cover all of them and the baseball guys got lots and lots of baseball bats...

Well, if it isn't armor, what the heck are baseball players always adjusting down there?

I've got a question - if he's banned on Twitter, why do those look like tweets?

It's truth social.

They're posts on his own alternative service, Truth Social, a locked-off fork of the Mastodon social network which looks very similar to Twitter in many ways.

The funny part is, zero Mastodon instances I have ever visited "look like Twitter".

I mean, it's the same idea of "microblogging", but they all have this very distinct mastodon-y look.

They went out of their way to make it look like Twitter.

There’s a New, Chaotic Possibility in the Elon Musk–Twitter Trial

If Musk’s financiers try to come to his rescue, it’ll be “what happens when matter hits antimatter.”

I'm starting to hope someone can freeze me, and then defrost me when it's over and I can learn the punchline.

Musk wants public debate with Twitter CEO instead of that upcoming court trial

Debate will happen at the Delaware Court of Chancery.

This isn't a required part of the deal and I really hope they don't entertain this nutter's dumbass demands for a debate.

The whole business is really odd. Elon Musk no longer wants Twitter and it seems that Twitter also no longer wants Twitter and wants to force Elon Musk to buy it. So Twitter isn't wanted by anyone.
