Because we all know Russian agents rely on Twitter as their sole source of tracking info.

Assuming this was a lot of sarcasm, are you saying that you agree that harmful things should be moderated even if they are not illegal?
Or if you think it is illegal, and that harmful, wouldn't the right thing be to file a lawsuit (after perhaps a warning) ?
Is Twitter getting too succesful too fast?

The amount of time you spend creating fantasies is unreal. You honestly think a "Russian agent" intent on shooting down Elon's jet can't use the exact same publicly available data the Elonjet account uses? Are you still incapable of grapsing the simple fact that Elonjet has no special access to data? You come up with incredibly strange scenarios without understanding simple basic facts.

No, it's just that Tucker hasn't established a new outlet yet, and everyone wanted to watch him more or less saying that he got fired for being non-conform with the political (and media) landscape, being honest and saying "true things".

I'm thinking BlueSky will be a good indicator of whether Twitter will morph into MySpace or Truth Social here in the next few months.
Will be interesting to watch nonetheless.

Don’t forget that twitter video AUTO PLAY (same with other platforms) is going to flag/tag a lot of peoples new “for you” streams with this video and auto play and auto tag as a VIEW when they scroll through their feed. I seriously doubt that 77M actually sought out or were interested in this video enough to seek it out, or click on it in their feed to be a real clear ”VIEW”
The original poster in twitter is probably blurring the lines between ’view’ and ’impression’ as well.
There is always some balance between freedom and security.
Should we ban live location flight tracking of a plane (not a specific human)?
Should we ban all location flight tracking even ones days ago?
It might seem like live location flight tracking is more useful to a bad actor, but I'd say the historical data is even more useful. Its more useful because you can ground truth the data where you remove all the flights the plane makes without whoever the bad actor is targeting.
The ground truth comes from the likes of twitter, and other social media platforms.. So do you ban the location sharing of celebrity sightings? Do you force a delay on it?
Most people are very predictable in terms of what their habits are, and when they go where they go. Using historical data a bad actor should be able to predict where a person is going to be at a given time to make arrangements to be there.
It's likely a bit of both.
On Instagram I don't want to see any car accident video's, but Instagram continues to pop them up on my feed. They do because I keep clicking on them. They're leveraging my need for analysis and not that I simply want to relax my brain with pretty pictures of hiking scenery.
If I was shown the tucker video I likely would have clicked on it, but just because it was there. If I was to seek something out it would be an analysis of the video.
You think people with nation state resources behind them would be getting this data off of Twitter or even ADSBx? What is wrong with you? Do you think if the US military wants to bomb a target in a foreign country like China that they're going to use Google Maps? Because this type of thinking is just as stupid as the CCP's thinking on GPS data. If the US military wants to bomb 中南海 I guarantee you they know the exact WGS-84 coordinates to enter into the missile and they're not going to be screwing around on Google Maps.

So, you’re agreeing Musk wasn’t truthful (or was at least mistaken) when he claimed someone was using ElonJet to stalk him, and now your position is “well, it could have happened!”
Plus you are saying that free speech absolutism without limits is a bad thing, is that right?
The goal posts are being moved so much, the field is dotted with holes.
You don’t have to lose sleep over it. That is where community notes comes in to play, and the truth finally comes out. If you let things play out on Twitter, truth comes out one way or the other for the most part.

Eyeballs! The tracker gets a name, a following, a reputation, potential backers, ads and employment.

A person’s Twitter popularity used to based upon the content of their posts or their off-line real lives. Now it’s based upon their willingness to pay Musk $8 each and every month.

Still want to know how Elon convinced Jack to roll over the $1B. Jack is not a rich man! Major hit to net worth.
It was all so very clear at the time, no matter what you thought about chances for Elon’s success.

That was a pretty embarrassing interview for all parties involved. They talk about the woke mind virus as if it's not one of the most idiotic things Musk has ever tweeted. At one point they even seemed to defend slavery.
I think Maher has lived in California for too long. He seems to be defining the left by their most extreme elements.
