Yes, governments *should* worry, as should citizens. The situation is primed to get really, really out of hand with Twitter.

Such a bad take.. paying $150/mo does not mean it won't be available.. It just means that the research institutes and political think tanks will have to pay $150 out of their huge pockets

Mark, I don’t think Musk’s intentions are what you say has happened to Twitter, and his work is surely not finished. Larger staff would be helpful until smarter solutions are found, if possible, but Twitter was financially moribund even before Musk took over so actions were taken

I used ti beleive that musk was an avangard.. his behaviour in regard of the war in Ukraine and some other things proof me wrong. He is just another asshole
