Can we defederate from Twitter/X already?

I really hope they don't go back on this because it's really going to damage their bottom line and I have popcorn to eat

I'll bet a buffalo nickel that this is so Musk can guarantee eyeballs on ads.

Arg: expected eyeballs on ads not 100% because blocking. This shiny new 'X' will guarantee 100%.

Tinfoil: If he can disrupt B2B on ads and seize more marketing market share, he looks like a genius and gets to add a payment feature to X. I don't think he's very creative and will just remake PayPal with a fuckton of extra steps.

What could possibly go wrong.

I'm going to be excited to see how this plays out with legal controls.

That being said removing block isn't necessarily a terrible idea if you plan to expand what your privacy controls are.

You should be able to restrict who can see your content. If they take away that aspect, that would be hilarious and ridiculous.

We'll see how it all plays out
