How much would you pay for a blue check mark?
Racial slurs are still part of free speech.
so much wrong informations
Twitter is the internet trolls Haven now they switching to TikTok it’s more fun in TikTok, twitter now is for old people who argues about politics 😂
“Racial slurs” that’s not a reason to not uphold democracy and free speech.
Eobard Thawne owns Twitter, now what?
Just don’t take away my source of two minute amateur/anon Pr0nz and maybe post one of yourself Elon and I’d be perfectly happy with whatever you do with Twitter.
It’s been two days since this video was posted and he’s already tanking the company lol. Advertisers are pulling out left and right and his silly subscription plan would only pay a minuscule fraction of its operating costs (assuming people actually pay for it).
Does this guy work for biden
Facebook’s big selling point was that it forced users to use their real names when they sign up (at least in theory). That differiated their product, at a time when nobody else (and still nobody else) did that.
Idk, what’s Twitter’s “thing” that differients itself from Reddit / Digg? Maybe being less “woke” (but without being the conservative mirror image like Parlor)? At least Elon is doing something.
Seventy five thousand views and less than three thousand likes.
everyone moving to mastodon
Elons Way
Soooo…im kinda new at being a twitter user.
I just use it to look at news and stuff, i just comment here and there, i dont post anything.
Does that mean i have to pay for my account? Im a little confused.
You guys used to be a tech-news site. This is just salty pondering. I miss Walt Mossberg.
better than libleft pajeeets.
What happened to the ‘make your own site its private company’ lmao
Verge opinion guys should revisit this video after 3 months and this time some real facts rather that ” Seems to be going down” bs
Africa and Asia
Bro bought an entire circus
If I had $44B to piss away on a toy, it sure wouldn’t be Twitter.
Just to let you know the verge hates elon, yet they have been obsessing over him for years
I jump into this video to expect you explain what Elon mask is trying to do not what you think he can do it well or not.
In order to make it a free speech twitter he had to charge that $8. activists try to curb whatever dialogues go against their views and then compel companies to stop advertising on that platform saying it spreads hate speech. so Elon understands that for free speech they can’t rely on ad revenue from for-profit companies which will do whatever if customers complain. So in order to have an open dialogue everyone should come as a whole and power the system.
Oh no! There is an increase in racial slurs?! How will our country ever recover?!
Bro, I get called the N word online literally daily, and I don’t interact with them. Free speech is free speech. Let people decide what to interact with. Don’t take away the choice.
I abandoned Facebook n joined Twitter because Elon Musk is in charge. 🐦
Elon is the richest man on earth buy God he needs that extra $8 a month God he’s a greedy man 🤑🤑
I use to admire this guy, I thought he was really interested in saving our planet, now I just think he is whack job, I’ll be buying a Ford mustang mach‑e, screw Tesla.
“You have freedom of speech if you pay us 8$ and don’t say anything we don’t like”
Musk will allow once again Free Speech in our country. Thank you Mr. Musk for restoring free speech 🙂 God Bless You
HE DOESN“T THINK LIKE US. GIVE HIM ADVICE AFTER BUYING JUST A 1 BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY.
Now he is screwed
oh, he actually bought twitter now?
Twitter did said the they are probably gonna fire 25% employees this end of year , so then you gonna say same thing?
vine lest fking gooooo 🤯😁
Now we win Maga again Trump Is back!
Rename Twitter to Muskitter. 😂
“Mad Mad Muskx beyond twitterdome!!!” Coined by me
The problem is going to be advertising money in my opinion advertising was always less about selling products and more about control Walmart spends 3or4 billion a year in advertising and who doesn’t know where their local Walmart is and that it has all the latest products they need to spend 3 billion to tell you while their work force is do underpaid that they are on food stamps anyway Elon a lot of the biggest companies don’t want free speech that’s not the direction they are going
JOOOOOOOOOOOO
Caring about Twitter/Facebook /etc if you’re past the age of 30 seems weird. But watching Elon making these grown babies cry is worth it
Without censorship democracy will be lost
People will be shocked by the hateful algorithm and another FB hearing disaster all over again.
He’s no Warren Buffett
Loved the BBC interview with verge editor in chief today. BBC / the verge should upload that!
Wow a lot of people in the comments have no clue how long Twitter has been around and what it was like that long ago. It used to be the ultimate social media tool for news, PR, journalism and updates.
