    “If you said to me that TikTok went away, that would be a disaster. But Twitter going away? Yeah, whatever.” https://www.nytimes.com/...

    Take away the revenue, and Twitter just becomes a giant manifestation of Musk's id, in which we all try to survive https://twitter.com/...

    This comes after we sent a letter with 25 other organizations to “Twitter's top advertisers to demand that Musk commit to upholding 'standards of community trust and safety, and to pull their advertising spending from Twitter if he does not.'"https://www.bloomberg.com/ ...

    Some advertisers are skittish about their as appearing alongside unfiltered content when @elonmusk takes over. Twitter has aggressive plans to set them at ease at this week's UpFronts ... scoop by @MaxwellAdler https://www.bloomberg.com/...
