     If #Twitter is not in the censorship business, and not a conduit for DHS control (it is), then any demand for censorship is a moot point on any platform host. Censorship actuated begins with the platform host. If Musk doesn't want to censor, he doesn't. It's that simple.

     Twitter is more valuable, and more engaged by ordinary citizens outside the U.S. Where there is state govt oppression, social media is more engaged. That's just a sociopolitical reality. Musk's use restrictions hurt non-paying users outside U.S more than inside. Start there!

     Musk wants you to believe that there is some higher power, some omnipotent entity, requiring him to censor users, and he must fight them.

     That's nonsense. It's his decision.

     He's playing many people for fools, and many people are buying it.

     Go back to the Arab Spring and the purpose of Twitter in Egypt/Libya. Twitter/FB served the govt interest.
     What is happening now in France is the inverse of that. What's happening w/Twitter is the inverse of prior Govt interest. Shutting down Twitter serves interest of govt.

     Scraping is another word for "spider crawling" (Google and Google AI have long been doing it), what Twitter is claiming is moot and not at all what's going on in the bigger picture. Sorry, this is the wrong take.
     You don't think Reddit is scraped daily?
     You don't think YouTube comments sections are scraped daily?
     The claims about trying to stop scraping in order to defend free speech from AI are ludicrous. As if Twitter is the only speech platform worthy of scraping for data.

     To address extreme levels of data scraping & system manipulation, we’ve applied the following temporary limits:
     - Verified accounts are limited to reading 6000 posts/day
     - Unverified accounts to 600 posts/day
     - New unverified accounts to 300/day

     #twitter This sounds like a place that can't pay its bills without government support.
     Based on Musk statements and leaked data, Oct 2023 Twitter runs out of money and something radical has to change. Either income (L.Yaccarino) or operating (reduction in simultaneous user cost), everything is a front to cover this issue.

     #Twitter's election censorship recruiter, Aaron Rodericks, basically hates you.

     "the ginger-bearded guy whining about welfare queens and high taxes" (he means @ AintGottaDollar)

     "the Daily Wire freaks" (he means @ benshapiro)

     yeh his new censorship hires will be neutral.

     TLR2: Do not mistake Market Cap for wealth.

     Market Cap can be wiped out overnight.

     Goes to show how gaslit the American public has become.

     True "wealth" is physical.

     6) #Musk's use of moral virtue and 'free speech' is a PR marketing strategy for audience engagement. That baseline is also why the actions and outcomes in the platform are not in alignment with the words from #Musk.

     Follow the $$

     5) The most influential element in this dynamic right now is not @ Twitter or @ rumblevideo, it's 👇
     @ TuckerCarlson is the lifeline Musk needs in more ways than content or purpose. Carlson holds leverage and should be aware of the tenuous $$ of Twitter.

     3) #Musk
     will have to go back to the market for $$, but will likely find deaf ears for more investment based on standard operations and current status.

     So, he needs to go back to market with a pitch for the intent of the additional $$ raised.

     That's where this surfaces: ..."Yaccarino started working at Twitter in early June and has told investors Twitter plans to focus on video, creator and commerce partnerships"...

     4) Entering the video content space puts all current video content providers in the position of competitor, not only for the space but more importantly for the raising of the $$ needed.

     Hence, @ rumblevideo becomes a PR target for the #Musk intent.

     Ergo motive for this...

     2) Musk/Yaccarino are tenuously positioned financially. With $1.5 Billion in investor debt service, they need income big time.
     Current $$ burn rate puts them around 2 months to major financial crisis.
