It's useful to not let your opinions of someone/a company become completely disconnected from reality. It helps you continue to be grounded in reality so that when problems actually happen you have a platform of credibility to stand on when you engage in criticism.

Well... Musk has had a number of comedians blocked on Twitter who showed just how unreliable that new "verification" system actually is a few days ago. It's not too far-fetched to fear the same kind of reaction towards criticism on his other properties as well.


I'm not surprised people are being banned when they violate Twitter's long standing Terms of Service for the purpose of getting into the news. They knew what they were doing.


Yeah, no. Starlink security team congratulated this guy on his hard work in person at DEFCON and gave him bug bounty "hall of fame" status.
