There is a great deal of interest in the outcome of the purchase of Twitter. However, it is worth tempering any expectations and taking a wait and see approach.
Is Musk independent? Does anyone really know?
From what my own research indicates, and assuming Mr Musk is entirely independent minded, I think it may take any “independent” Musk team quite a while to find out exactly what the internal networks of Twitter are all about.
My guess is, there are background connections in the Twitter code [compatibility datasets to align with other (shadow?) networks] that will take a long time to unravel.
I stand by my original inclination: Twitter is to the U.S. Govt, what TikTok is to China.
