If Musk is right, the "for cause" argument holds up.

Yup. When you deceive the courts or FEC ahead of sale of the company, yeah, that's cause.

He's having fun, isn't he?

Let's hope he makes a little money while he's at it...

@Jolly remember all the "It's a private platform, they can do what they want" comments? Remember "If you don't like it, build your own platform."

Well, rather than going through all that BS, he just bought it. He dismissed the board and he wholly owns it with no accountability.

No. Twitter remains "free." If you want to be "verified," it'll cost you some cash, as opposed to having a bunch of bureaucrats decide if you're real.

ETA: The $8 also allows you to post longer videos, see fewer ads and things I don't recall.

Elon's having so much fun.

Of course, he hasn't (afaik) visited TNCR, so he might not be completely informed, yet.
