You cannot trust Twitter again until someone else buys it. One policy means nothing since they can change it overnight… as they have done now.

- thejohnconway 4y agoIt’s pretty obvious you can’t trust Twitter if someone else buys it either. It can always be bought by an idiot and run into the ground (again).
- nicce 4y agoI am not sure if it can get much deeper into the ground anymore, since it makes people already turn away. But it is true that it depends on the buyer. But there is new hope at least, if the ownership changes.

- flandish 4y agoIt was(is/will be) a corporation - you cannot “trust” any corporation. None of what twitter / elon is doing is a surprise - it’s just a popular site so it’s more reported.
- nicce 4y agoNot entirely true anymore. In my understanding Twitter is in the process for going private company, and by not being a public company reduces the pressure for profits. For example Valve is a great example, how a private company can be successful and respect it's customers. But the problem is, that the price is still going to be high for Twitter when it will sold again, even if the price is just a fraction. Not many are willing to buy it and then reduce profits by thinking the best of its users.
- flandish 4y agoI’m sorry for confusion - I meant corporation in the sense that it’s a for profit org operating under capitalism. Not necessarily a public company, available on the stock exchanges.
