@lauren I think that comment during his CNBC interview in May is telling: "'Offer me money. Offer me power. I don't care.'” His mind is made up that he's playing N-dimensional chess and has seen so far ahead that he doesn't need to change course.
His lawsuit against Meta for IP infringement reeks of desperation.Threads seems hastily hacked together and leverages Facebook/Instagram infrastructure, which is likely radically different from Twitter's, I doubt he can make a credible case.
Taylor LorenzAgree with this piece on IG’s Threads and why it can never truly replicate the magic Twitter once had https://techcrunch.com/2023/07/06/threads-wont-be-fun-but-it-will-give-brands-a-home-away-from-twitter/?guccounter=1
Andrea Grandi 🦕I think defederating Threads is a huge missed opportunity for Mastodon to grow.
Imagine interacting with their users and letting them know that: you scroll posts without ads, your timeline is in chronological order, your client doesn’t spy on you, you only see what you want and no other content is pushed to your timeline, etc…
if I was a Threads users, I would move to Mastodon as soon as I find out 🙂

Twitter Admits in Court Filing: Elon Musk Is Simply Wrong About Government Interference At Twitter
It is amazing the degree to which some people will engage in confirmation bias and believe absolute nonsense, even as the facts show the opposite is true. Over the past few months, we’ve gone throu…
Dan GillmorOnce again, Big Journalism is treating a right-wing extremist as a regular guy.
As @joshtpm explains, Pentagon leaker Teixeira has loudly expressed beliefs that come straight from the extremists' rancid traditions -- almost a reincarnation of Oklahoma City bomber Tim McVeigh.
So why does the Washington Post treat him with absurd deference?
It's terrible journalism, and also business as usual.

Qasim Rashid, Esq.As Texas Gov Abbot prepares to pardon a white man & convicted murderer for killing a peaceful BLM protestor—Texas sentences a Black man to 70 years in prison for “spitting at police” to “make an example out of him.”😳
Systemic white supremacy is thriving in the GOP. Horrific.
Laffy"The McGonigal story is huge, and the NYT still has a lot of explaining to do...
It was the real "October Surprise" - 2016 deceptions that put #Trump in the White House, fueled by #FBI leaks
Knowing now that a top FBI agent went to work for a billionaire #Putin ally, the #NYTimes need to reveal the truth of these stories."
