This is quite interesting. Regardless of which way you vote when it comes election time, Trump would have a much better chance if he had social media access again. If Musk takes control of Twitter and gives Trump access again it could have an enormous impact on the outcome of that election and the future of America. It’s interesting (and terrifying) that someone could take Twitter private and exercise that level of power. I can’t imagine it would be long until the government regulated it at that point but given the US strong protections for free speech I’m not sure how much regulation can occur.

- themitigating 5y agoRather have a group of people control something than one person
- basisword 5y agoAgreed but the fact that one person could single handedly choose to (potentially) impact an entire country's future on a whim is mind blowing.
