Oh yeah. Do it Musk and find out why Twitter had that privacy settlement in the first place.

Ironbite-he's so dumb.
Twitter paid out thousands to popular right-wing tweeters, including Andrew Tate, with their new monetization program.
I mean, there isn't a joke about life support in there. Just ******* DIE already.
Slowly turning up the screws on anyone still trying to do business on the platform without subscribing. Yeah, they can still contact them off-site but it adds a layer of inconvienience that could turn away some customers(as there are apparently still some around given those artists haven't ALL bailed yet).
Spam away, as long as you're paying Musk. While this will reduce spam by maybe .01%, it will increase Twitter's revenue in the short term when said spam accounts actually start paying for twitter blue. Grifters will pay as long as there are enough potential victims to make it worthwhile(which is why it's only gonna be a short-term boost).
Goodbye Twitter (But not in the way that we want), hello X. Also goodbye all the birds.

Elon Musk To Replace Twitter's Bird Mascot And Rename Site X
Musk unveiled a slick new X logo hours after bidding "adieu" to the bird.
So he's throwing away over a decade of brand recognition because he has some fetish about the letter x Seriously .. X.com(the one that merged with the company that created PayPal, not the NEW one), SpaceX and now renaming Twitter to X, not to mention the name of his kids X and Exa.
I look forward to the day we can all call him an eX-billionaire.
You know the phrase "X marks the spot"? X is basically that. Everything is X. You can do anything at X. Because at X, we do it all. He has no idea just how bad this is going to be because he's got no idea how a company that basically runs on ad revenue works. And this shows. He thinks by changing the name, he'll bring those advertisers back. But they won't come back. And companies that rely on Twitter for content will also not use X because it's just....too expensive to deal with Musk.
Ironbite-X is his obsession and it'll just not work

Trying to think of another example of such willful jettisoning of brand recognition. Granted, Twitter's brand name isn't exactly healthy or good nowadays, but still. Maybe Radioshack being like "Hey, we're The Shack now."
At least 'The Shack' had some connection to the original name... X is just out of left field and has no connection at all to the product. Even ol' Zuck had the sense to only rename the parent company Meta and not the product itself.
I would say no one could possibly be that stupid, if Monster energy drink hadn't tried to sue every video game with the word "monster" in the title.
Netflix changing their DVD rental service to "Qwikster" comes to mind. 'Course, they had enough sense to abandon it when enough people told them what a dumb idea it was.
