SwiftOnSecurityAm I the only person who remembers the villains
DJGummikuh@SwiftOnSecurity personally, I don't blame the Twitter Board. Musk stated his intend to buy Twitter, destabilizing its share value in the process and probably helped some short sellers with that. Them selling out in this situation not only secured their personal wealth but also served as a statement that you can't just manipulate stock markets without having to buy in eventually. If Musk got away with it he would have presumably expanded on that "business strategy" from then on.
@SwiftOnSecurity I believe the real issue this whole thing shines a bright light on is that there are individuals that can destabilize a company's financial situation simply by talking bullshit on a social media platform. And this has actually nothing to do in particular with twitter, musk or the former twitter board

@DJGummikuh Anyone still could, though? The only reason Twitter was able to keep Musk from backing out of the proposal was he was dumb enough to put the offer in writing. Trying to fight a suit of contract breach would have cost him more than buying for the original agreement, it's the only reason he didn't renege.
@ceremus Yes, that just adds to my point that this should not be possible. We as a people must learn to prevent single persons to amass so much power.
