Also consider: Elon Musk (and maybe the House of Saud?) now has access to the direct messages of every politician on the planet.
(And these aren’t necessarily the most technically-savvy or infosec-aware people we’re talking about here…)

(Just look at Liz Truss and her phone, for the latest example of how clueless they are when it comes to infosec/tech.)

in reply to Hippocampe • • •Yep. In this particular instance, it would appear that it might have been a technical glitch as some other verified folks reported seeing the same thing but yes, exactly the sort of thing you’d expect from him.
And no one external to Twitter has a way of knowing exactly what they’re doing as there’s zero transparency. The only thing we know is that it’s Elon’s toy now and he has access to whatever he wants on it.

in reply to Aral Balkan • • •Without wanted to support Elon, but if any politician was exchange important information through any commercial social media, then I hope Elon would expose that politician.
My argument here is that who is the ownership is just one dimension of the equation, the protocol (like the constitution of the platform) is one other dimension. Personally, I am here not for the "ownership", I am here for the future-proofed protocol. Elon is just one another extremely rich guy with expensive toys.

(I am using a lot of the constituent parts in Kitten.)
