If twitter got hacked it would be incredibly unlikely it was cos of anything Elon put in place in his short time there. But hey, Elon seems to be the new Trump .... hang any shit on him whether its true or not.

People should realise, hacking isnt suddenly new. Its been happening for years. Your info isnt safe anywhere cos humans tend to f**k up. Its just that they decided to start telling you about it more for some reason.

If Warren Buffet or Blackstone bought twitter, the transition would have been done in silence. Adjustments in policy woukd have been made over time and be almost unnoticed.

If Elon has become the whipping boy, its solely because of his clumsy very public method of governance.

Yeah nothing at all to do with exposing the bias in favour of one side of politics. 🙄

Yeah, i pretty sure he kinda meant to make a big fuss.

Dont get me wrong, im no Elon fan trying to defend him here .... i think he is just another rich f**kwit who thinks he can dictate how the world should be purely cos he has cash falling out his arse.

But fact is you are most likely just spreading "misinformation" about him by posting that tweet (oh yay i got to use a buzzword)

You are the man who knows everything so we can only assume you are correct.
You and Pou should go into business and solve the world.

Ardern can't do another pre-season, not extending her contract. That'll please lots. She's about as popular with the cookers and the RWNJs as Dan Andrews.

It's not a fact if it's most likely. That's called an oxymoron. Or is it a paradox ? Can't remember.
Oh know, ive been analed by a oxymoron f**ked check

Ok, i will rephrase it as, you are spreading misinformation by posting tweets from random numpties with no clue .... maybe you are turning into an elon cooker

OK then, which bit is misinformation ? The bolded bit ? Many would agree that his approach to privacy and security is lax. So I assume that the "misinformation" bit is the allegation that the hack was soley due to this ? I agree that it's conjecture, but misinformation ? Sure, if you need it to be.

Due to Elon Musk’s lax view on privacy and security, a hacker hacked into Twitter’s api and they are now selling 400 million users sensitive data, including emails, phones, and names with verifiable proof. Elon is refusing to comment on this.

The bit where it likely occurred before he even took over twitter ... and even if it was after it is highly unlikely it was something he did.

And explain to me the laxed privacy and security that Elon put in place. I'd like some technical details. And how its now different to what was there before. Maybe ask Erica Marsh for her technical assessment.

I agreed with you that it was conjecture.

However the notion that the company is not lax is not misinformation at all. So all we have now is the question if it is the same or worse than when he took over. Or has it improved.


The date of the hack is unknown it seems. Some are saying it's recent. Some are saying it was before Elon got the keys. Not much transparency TBH.

Yeah I'm with you, I'd like to see the proof that twitter have rolled back or disabled their cyber security posture at Elon's behest since he took over. I know he has rissoled a lot of staff, were the SecOps team all let go?
