Wow, just wow. He totally calls the reporter out. I love that he even asked him about the BBC policies etc. "this is not an interview about the BBC"
This was great.

Here's the full interview, and it is glorious.
I'm not familiar with this reporter or, what his experience level is but, the longer this goes, the worse it gets for him.

Elon Musk says US Government had 'full access' to private Twitter DMs
“Twitter CEO Elon Musk has claimed the U.S. government had access to users private messages on Twitter.
In a wide-ranging interview with Fox News' Tucker Carlson, set to be broadcast on Monday and Tuesday night, Musk made the startling claims noting how he was shocked to learn that the government had full access to private communications on the platform.
The billionaire tycoon told Carlson how unaware of the fact until he joined the company and expressed surprise at the degree to which government agencies were able to monitor social media.
'The degree to which government agencies effectively had full access to everything that was going on on Twitter blew my mind,' Musk said. 'I was not aware of that.' …”

The feds can hack anything they want and they're obviously immune from any law banning such.

So, the question is, they had full access because twatter was in bed with them, or because they hacked the site? My bet is the former. Next question is, as sse put it, "wonder if they still do". Has Musk done anything to put a stop to it?

Re: “ Has Musk done anything to put a stop to it?”
Anyone that pays attention to Musk’s actions since he bought Twitter would be damned surprised if he hadn’t stopped it.
Serious about crackers.

Eight bucks and he's pissed off. Such entitlement. Don't take it private, man. Take it elsewhere.

By the way, what's a "long snapper"? Sounds really gay.

The irony of it is that some say they paid upwards of 50k to get a checkmark "approved" and many that didnt pay never got one, even though they had met all the conditions. Now they are screaming about it being taken away

Special team for punting/kicking FG/PAT. It's actually less gay, since the QB isn't palming your sack.

Perfectly typical leftist behavior: Dramatically storming off, declaring yadda yadda, only to eventually behave as if it never happened, and in this case, it took them no time at all to come sucking back.
