Meta Mistake - Social Media Is Sucio

"just mute him pretty sure you can do whatever you want if you spend $40b" is quite possibly the most hilarious mental pole vault I've seen.

Its a persistent delusion of people that money or power means they can do or justify whatever.

Doesn't want you to use an SMS service for the potential once-a-year time you use it unless you pay monthly for it, but still wants to know your phone number.
This is a dumb change unless I'm vastly underestimating how regularly it gets used to a point that financially mattered for them.

Should be pretty obvious to anyone with a brain cell he's trying to monetize as much of Twitter as he can. Grifters gon grift.

At this point, Elon has done almost as much damage to the myth of american meritocracy as President Trump.

Any recommendations on a solid security key?

I've noticed Tumblr has reinstated caps on the number of daily posts/likes since they became a popular alternative to Twitter.

Not sure if Yubikeys work with phones but I love them for computer keys.

google searches tell me that the tumblr post caps have been a thing since 2013 - 250 posts.

Guess I didn't consider the bot/scam angle

60M/yr isn't enough for phone companies to cross the street for, so that sounds like a bullshit explanation.

Scammed how? You enter phone # into your profile, system sends you a SMS notification code, or hits an app api to allow you to login. Where does the scam come from? Verizon? AT&T?

The implication is that small carriers might be falsely spamming the system to drive up their API revenue.

lol it's like Musk has never heard of actually doing analytics to dig down and see that data..but who am I kidding. He does and just doesn't want to, yet another in a long line of stupid ass decisions buy an "esteemed" business genius who's only businesses have succeeded sucking at the government teet.

[Kaisha]

I was more thinking scams as in people trying to jack other's accounts somehow, not the phone companies themselves.
