It’s possible that the enforcement of a rate limit isn’t because of AI scraping, but rather because they failed to migrate before the June 30th deadline.

      When all this crap started, my guess was that he is some sort of captured asset that’s using his position to sabotage the platform to hinder free speech. Initially, he was so strongly targeting any anti-trump/anti-republican assets that it seemed blatantly obvious, but my money is on Russia or China. China being the more obvious option, given they supply a lot of Tesla’s materials.

      That’s all conjecture of course, he could just be an insane despot cutting his nose off to spite his face like Steve Huffman.

    At this point I have no idea if twitter dying is a planned thing or mismanagement. I made my profile my freshman year of high school and never logged back on. The only thing I’ll miss is having a general place for quick updates on projects that I’m keeping an eye on. Guess it’s time to fully utilized discord.

        Especially with how much money was spent on acquiring it. If it is on purpose, he has unimaginable capital.
