@taylorlorenz Elon Musk is saying “Nice account you have there… it’d be a shame if someone were to compromise it.”
@bleakfuture @taylorlorenz
What is that suppose to mean?
Remember, this is not twitter. Threats, even in irony form are not overlooked.
@carlostph @taylorlorenz It’s a reference to extortion and protection rackets run by the mob - that’s what Elon is doing.
@bleakfuture @taylorlorenz
I know what you "might" have wanted to say. Please rephrase it so it doesn't look like a threat.
@bleakfuture @taylorlorenz
You can do better. Please try.
Seriously. please edit the post. Mob-like comments, even if it is irony, is not polite. Respect is something we need to not forget.
@carlostph @taylorlorenz I’m sorry, I’m trying to shake off the sneakiness I had on twitter and be a better community member. Thanks for checking me.

@bleakfuture @taylorlorenz
No problem, we all need a little help getting out of the battle field that twitter was/is. I know I've needed someone to check me as well. Thanks for the good reception.

By the way, I agree that the MFA now-elite option, might bring things back into the years where having an airbag in the car was subject to additional taxing because it was considered a "luxurious accessory".
