A decade ago I closed my Facebook account because it confused me and I didn't have time to mess with it, I have never had any of the other ones, I am a downlow kind of person. I worked in IT and take security seriously. My email is tuta out of Germany, where they have much better privacy laws, my phone is thelightphone, no apps, no tracking, no listening, no bullshit. I am sure I have some digital footprint but I do what I can. When we, America, has a Royal Flush of the Senate the House and the White House I hope digital securty and personal data becomes a priority.

Feeling rather affirmed that X never entered my sphere.

Why isn’t shutting down your X account something you should do now?

I’ve told my family and friends to shut their accounts down, but they won’t. They’re going to find out soon enough how bad this is.

It baffles me still that there is all this noise about boycotting & protesting Tesla -- where the physical products and 85% of all efforts & profits are entirely aligned with liberal & environmental ideals.. while posting & reading on X -- which has zero redeeming value and is a vastly more dangerous and insidious tool of evil.

Don't forget, though, that Musk mortgaged his ownership in Tesla to obtain the loans he needed to buy Twitter etc. It may well be that as goes Tesla, so goes Musk.

It’s about what he’s going to do with all the private, financial, medical and all manner of personal data he’s amassed under the guise of DOGE. Because let us not forget that Musk wants to turn X into a payments platform.

Tesla is tanking. Where do we set our sites next to keep working to take this MF down.

Maybe the AI will finally get to read my F...U message to him after he censored me. https://jtolbertjr.substack.com/p/censored-by-twitter 😂

This is securities fraud. The SEC should investigate this. He literally falsified and overinflated the value of this website in its death throes.

Only an idiot would use twitter in any other mode than Read Only. I’ve never posted a single tweet, or comment, sent a DM, or used Grok. And never will.

The Good people/patriots who are pro democracy, need to wean themselves off this cesspool, which is nothing shitter!

I am unsettled that Musk “sold” X for $33 billion when its worth is reported to be $673 million. Hope you will understand this better. I feel my whiskers tingling. Somebody is getting shafted here. In retail this is akin to not properly marking down inventory. That is fraud on any investor. https://hotbuttons.substack.com/p/musk-shat-his-brands?r=3m1bs

This is the least of everyone’s worries. What is more scary and crazy is that he has all Americans’ most private data and information that he openly stole…. Plus FBI, CIA, nuclear secrets etc… your voter registrations and now Trump signed an executive order to hand over all voter rolls by state. Do you guys have any idea what he can do with his AI now?????
