Musk's "sale" of X to xAI is more akin to taking money out of one wallet to put into another wallet. It's a move to integrate both into one organization. So, expect X to be filled with fake BS more than ever.

Wer Werbung auf X macht, der unterstützt direkt die Machtergreifung der Republikaner und der US Tech-Mafia!
Wenn die dann nach Strich und Faden abgezogen werden, trifft es da keinen falschen ... #usa #america #trump #elonmusk #x #twitter #tesla

On the #xAI purchase of #X (#Twitter)
Because both companies are privately held & controlled by #Musk, the transaction likely amounts to a #stock swap, with X investors getting paid out in xAI shares. The companies have a number of mutual investors, including venture firms #AndreessenHorowitz & #SequoiaCapital, as well as #Fidelity Management, #VyCapital & #SaudiArabia’s Kingdom Holding Co.

@Nonilex @GhostOnTheHalfShell @cryptadamist @Daojoan @pluralistic I don't doubt that my data from two years ago is stored somewhere, even though I went through and painfully, in small batches, or one by one even, deleted everything, even my followers from my account. I dread to imagine what he will do with current users' data. I'd not be on that platform for anything. #USPol #X #Musk
