i m sure it's de rigueur to diss Musk, but this is smart for business. Twitter's recommendations arent that great and i doubt they re such a big driver of traffic (i use the chronological mode and it s not much different). The EU will now have to eat its paper, cause they are trying to pass laws about this, and the EU has solely called Musk to testify in the parliament. If true, this pulls the rug under a lot of very opinionated people
- rvnx 4y agoSmart ? Isn't it a risk that Twitter (the company) gets litigated because it has done illegal or unfair things in the past ? If some politics discover that Twitter has influenced in one way, they may be able to sue for example. Or if there were illegal discriminations. Also it makes it much easier for scammers to game the algorithm. The smart move would be to do nothing, as nobody has ever asked for Twitter's ranking algorithms.
- seydor 4y agoI doubt they will release that stuff. probably just some core sorting routines > as nobody has ever asked for Twitter's ranking algorithms. Actually many many people have. And this is good PR for his marketing department
