No shit. Glad they investigated it so it's official, though. I ditched my account when Phony Stark took over as the writing was on the wall.

Anyone who still uses X is complicit. There's so many alternative platforms to invest in, there's no excuse anymore.

I work in this field for a competitor. We're watching what happens very closely, because yea, X is the worst at compliance and it tells us the bottom bar

The bottom bar ain't staying though if everyone does it.

I understand that the poop emoji auto responder is all over getting this fixed, though. Nothing to worry about, if you own stock in Xitter.

Dont worry! All those EU finger wagging and potential warning of threats will surely change things!

Go ask Apple and Microsoft about the finger wagging

You see, the difference is they're run like a real company with a real goal for profits and growth, as opposed to being led by a man child's playground who was forced to buy it.
