Thought for the day
The end of Twitter?
Elon Musk is to reverse Twitter's lifetime ban of Donald Trump if successful if his takeover is successful. At a stroke, this would undo the work of thousands of Twitter staff over the years who've worked to make Twitter a safe (although not safe enough) a place as possible.
A new Wild West social network could be here soon! I've been predicting the end of Twitter for some years now, but if Twitter becomes a cesspool of violence and hate then surely businesses would pull the plug and stop advertising?
An interesting few months are ahead for Twitter.
