... and one would think, that to 'win', the twats have to divulge how many monetizable daily active user accounts are on the platform ... and the region and age demographics come into play too.

Depending on the source, in Feb 2022, that number of accounts was 217 million, with 38 million US adults.

Now, if one cares, compare that to LINE - Japan's #1 social media platform - with 89 million monthly active users.

Good on ya Jack, on doing the world a big flavor. Let's see your hand.

Doesn't this give Musk the opportunity to make Discovery of the facts for the case? So Twitter will have to prove the numbers they stand by.

I was just about to post the same thing.

With today's public, either a person is very erudite, or a complete idiot. There seems to be many fewer that are in between anymore.



I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all. -Ecclesiastes 9:11

...But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by Him shall glory, but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped. - Psalm 63:11 [excerpted]

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Ralph Nader is still alive???

I though he perished in a one car Corvair accident back in the 60's.

"The man who forever changed vehicle safety standards in the U.S. has a scathing new message for Elon Musk and Tesla’s self-driving car technology: He thinks it’s dangerous, and regulators should get involved. "

In an SEC filing Tuesday, Musk said his legal team notified Twitter of “additional bases” for ending the deal on top of the ones given in the original termination notice issued in July.

In a letter to Twitter Inc., which was included in the filing, Musk’s advisors cited the whistleblower report by former executive Peiter Zatko — also known by his hacker handle “Mudge.”

Zatko, who served as Twitter’s head of security until he was fired early this year, alleged in his complaint to U.S. officials that the company misled regulators about its poor cybersecurity defenses and its negligence in attempting to root out fake accounts that spread disinformation

The letter, addressed to Twitter’s Chief Legal Officer Vijaya Gadde, said Zatko’s allegations provide extra reasons to end the deal if the July termination notice “is determined to be invalid for any reason.”

Elon Musk’s legal team subpoenaed Twitter whistleblower Peiter Zatko to appear Sept. 9 for a deposition in an ongoing legal fight over the billionaire’s deal to acquire the social network for $44 billion.

The subpoena seeks any documents Zatko has related to his complaint to federal regulators that Twitter has misled the public about “extreme, egregious deficiencies” in its security practices, as well as any documents related to spam on the platform, the company’s attempts to hide its security vulnerabilities, and allegations that company employs foreign intelligence service agents.

Looks like Twitter's Back on the Menu, Boys....

Elon Musk has offered to close his $44 billion deal to buy Twitter Inc. TWTR 12.67%▲ on the terms he originally agreed to, according to a person familiar with the matter, an unexpected twist that could allow the two sides to avert a high-stakes trial set to begin soon.

The torment of it all.

Musk: I'm gonna buy Twitter

Twitter: I don't think so

Musk: No, really, I'm gonna buy you

Twitter: Never!

Musk: OK, y'know what? I'm not going to buy you

Twitter: You can't back out. You said you were going to buy us, now we'll MAKE YOU buy us!
