There’s just something fucking hilarious about laying off employees, mocking them, and being sued for improperly firing them – and then whining that your competitor hired them and that they have access to Twitter information still.

I believe this fits well under the “fuck around and find out” doctrine.

    Yes, It is definitely a case of taking US$44 billion and throwing it away. But it is worse than that, because Twitter was a resource for the internet community.

    And his attempts to make money after the fact are as pathetic as a World Leader using his position to spruik tins of beans.

    It is almost like some sort of performance art.

      I never liked that the supposed public square on the internet was in private hands, it should’ve always been a protocol like Usenet or Mastodon where anyone could spin up a server and participate.
