Doesn’t Fox have a non-compete clause? He’s even suing to try to get out of it.
This isn’t a terrible decision by Musk. He’ll be able to get a lot of fuckwit advertisers over from Fox, and more engagement than ever from the nutjobs. And it’s not clear Carlson will run off any more non-idiots than are already running away?
He may get the latter, but Carlson famously scared away most of the primo advertisers. I don’t think the recent news lessens his toxicity to them.
At least until MyPillow gets taken over by Dominion.
On purging of accounts:
Musk on investigative journalism group Bellingcat:
Twitter has apparently turned off the ability to search for “cat” after users discovered that typing it into the search bar caused autocomplete to suggest videos of animal abuse.
Agile cruelty!
Just reading about the videos is going to give my nightmares. 
Thanks, Elon!
It seems as though Elmo has found a replacement twitter CEO.
Shall we start taking bets as to how long it takes before she is fired because she couldn’t save twitter from Elmo?
Or, more likely, she’ll try saving Twitter from Elmo, which puts her in opposition to Elmo, which Elmo absolutely will not tolerate.
Quite frankly, I think that anyone who would accept that position is about as bright as a trump lawyer.
At this point, I’m expecting the “new” CEO to be Elmo in drag.
Damn you making me visualize this.
I think he’s getting ready!
That is quite a cursed AI abomination.
Of course, I’ve also read semi-serious speculation that Elmo knows Twitter is doomed, and wants a woman to be in charge so his fanbase can declare that a woman killed Twitter. >.<
From the article:
Even after his successor takes over, Musk will still call the shots. Musk said Thursday that he would transition to executive chairman and chief technology officer, and would still oversee products and software.
Sounds like the new CEO will be relegated to basic day-to-day grunt work while Elmo continues to meddle in everything. Who would want a job running a disintegrating organization while Elmo watches over their shoulder? And why all the secrecy about who this person is?
Because he’s hoping to figure out who it is sometime in the next six weeks?
