has cultivated a public image as an agile, creative entrepreneur, whose penchant for interacting with fans via social media has set him apart from other billionaires.
Advertisers warned they would leave the platform if Musk went through with his plans to scale back on content moderation, but he did it anyway, and is now complaining that ad revenue is in freefall ., which experts warned could lead to a rise of impersonation on the site, has since led to many people using their existing blue tick to impersonate Musk himself. He has now said that users impersonating someone else will be permanently suspended .
We are witnessing – in real time – the puncturing of Elon Musk’s famously inflated ego, and the schadenfreude is almost tangible. He is experiencing the unpleasant consequences of his actions – which critics explicitly warned about – and it is dawning on many, that despite his wealth, power, reputation, and resources, Musk doesn’t actually know what he’s doing.
So why is this happening now? Well, it appears Musk is embarking on this Twitter journey on his own. Alongside firing huge swathes of general staff, Musk sacked some of Twitter’s top executives within the first few hours of taking over and completely dissolved the company’s board in just a few days, making himself the sole director.
With Musk now solely in charge, apparently making business decisions on a whim and often implementing the suggestions random people have tweeted at him, we enter new territory where Musk appears to not be guided by advisers or other senior members of staff. We are now, perhaps for the first time, getting pure, undiluted Musk.
