So "X" - nothing to see here. Elon's in control - Part XXX **Threadbans in OP**

And they can always go and set up their own social media platform if Twitter is too unbearable for them!

While there might be some justification to your ethical objections, the transhumanism is already happening and the world is a better place for it. We are already training our minds beyond what they are naturally capable, especially in fields like science and technology. We already have synthetic body parts. So computer chip brain implants are just a natural next step.

But the most important thing is that we as right leaning individuals can have this conversation without having a meltdown.

He wants the user base.

The platform itself is a load of old bollocks.

Strange how the argument used to be that twitter was a company with terms and conditions, if you didn't like it you could find somewhere else and they can do as they wish. It's seems to only be a problem now that Dorsey is out the door.

If Musk makes the algorithms and internal workings of the platform public knowledge, tackles bot farms and introduces some form of user verification that is only a good thing - it will help remove a lot of the ambiguity.

It’s not the least bit strange. They were making that point precisely because of the numbers of idiots who argued that “their right to free speech was being violated”. It wasn’t then, it’s not now.

Musk has no intention of making anything about the platform public, nor has he any intention of tackling bot farms or user verification or anything else. All that is nothing more than smoke and mirrors nonsense to disguise the reality that he is nothing more than a petty and spiteful individual. When he was rapped on the knuckles by the SEC, his next big idea was to buy the same social media platform on which his output is restricted, precisely because of him being a shady fcuker who has disappeared up his own arsehole, to begin with -

The SEC has argued that Musk freely agreed to the limits and that review of his tweets by a Tesla securities lawyer doesn’t amount to government regulation of his speech. 

Liman also denied Musk’s effort to block an SEC subpoena seeking information from Musk on his tweets, ruling that he’s as subject to investigation by the agency as anyone else. 

“The court is simply saying we can move to quash these subpoenas when they are compelled,” said Musk’s lawyer, Alex Spiro. “Nothing will ever change the truth, which is that Elon Musk was considering taking Tesla private and could have -- all that’s left some half decade later is remnant litigation which will make that truth clearer and clearer.”

Liman dispensed with Musk’s argument that the SEC lacks authority to seek information from him.

Musk couldn’t give a rats arse about free speech or sticking it to the left or whether or not he has the support of every wingnut who isn’t already banned from the platform, or the support of plenty of people who are banned, who are just as petty, spiteful and up their own arse, as Musk.

I'm okay with humans directly interfacing with tech, but it should be available to everyone. I have a sensor that communicates with my phone to measure my blood glucose. At what point does the tech become problematic?

It's not that unusual.

They are largely created by, staffed by the same class that the left come from.

This lucky rich big prick will leave a legacy and very likely will be in the history books along Edison, Tesla and Ford.

I work at a US tech company and we do not have anything like that in slack, id honestly be very surprised if such a channel existed that its existence was known about and supported by management because it could lead to serious legal issues if people did face career repercussions because of it like you mention.

Thats the main reason why I also dont believe you as I doubt any companies legal team would be so stupid or naive enough to allow something like that to exist due to it being so easily recordable and reproducible if needed for evidence against them.

Sounds like a recipe for disaster, never put anything in writing that may be used against you at any time in the future, it's the sad reality of modern corporate culture.
