I'm not up on my billionaire gossip so I have no idea if Dorsey and Musk are friend or foe but I can certainly see where someone would regret building something powerful and then letting others (especially those with different views) control it.

- qiskit 5y agoIf Dorsey was worried about letting others control it, he wouldn't have gone public with twtr nearly 10 years ago. Crazy how in 10 years, twtr's market cap hasn't budged while tesla's has grown to over 1 trillion dollars. If only I knew back then what I know now...
- vineyardmike 5y ago> The timing makes me wonder if Jack Dorsey knew this was happening yesterday? He totally could have known, since the paperwork was filed a few weeks ago. Did he look into the paperwork? Maybe? - if I found a major biz, I'd keep my EDGAR alerts turned on.
- syshum 5y agoJack lost control of Twitter to activist employees, not the shareholders. I could be very wrong but the impression I got from watching several interviews with Jack (like his appearance on Joe Rogan) he seemed to have been very very torn by the desire to be a more free speech platform while still being in a constant battle with his Activist CA based employee's I think this battle is why he left.
