In the age of disinformation, this is the most important episode of Last Week Tonight yet.
John Oliver uncovers how Elon Musk took over Twitter and began funding accounts who spread disinformation, creating movements that cause serious trouble in the real world based on Twitter falsehoods — even causing the Trump regime to launch security operations based on conspiracy theories invented by random Twitter users.
@randahl just visiting twitter makes you complicit with Musk's agenda through engagement and ad views that makes revenue.
I did recently stumble on this browser extension
https://github.com/DoingFedTime/PrivacyPlease
It redirects any twitter link to Nitter. Also, with Nitter you can generate RSS feeds of any account you still might want to follow. I generally don't like browser extensions, but this is actually pretty useful. Only downside, not on mobile, yet.
