  This seems to me like an attempt to defuse the EU's ire about the misinformation spread on Twitter. I'm curious as to how they determine which accounts are real and which are parody.

    Elon will vet them himself. Obviously any Elon Musk parody account will be removed.

  Aren't jokes funnier when you don't telegraph that they're jokes?

  Is this related to a blue check account starting a lie that briefly rallied the stock market by about 3 trillion before dropping about the same amount?
