Elon Musk’s recent streak of puzzling policy announcements regarding his company X, formerly known as Twitter, has been so inexplicably reckless that one has to ask if he secretly wants the company to fail.he intends to remove headlines and other text from news articles shared on X. That would dramatically shake up the way the platform looks — and mark a departure from the norm for article sharing across social media.
Musk claims blocking “makes no sense,” but blocking is the premier tool users have to protect themselves from harassment, doxxing and abuse on the platform.based on his belief that removing headlines will make posts on X smaller, thereby allowing more posts to show up in a user’s feed at any given time. He also apparently believes removing headlines will reduce clickbait headlines that entice readers using inflammatory language. That reasoning isn’t compelling.
