bit to unpack
websites are proving to be a fickle business.
and subject to the vagaries, fashions and trends of the even more fickle public.
one can go from hero to zero overnight, or vice versa.
i think about that same amount he paid for twitter is what netflix lost in value in the days after its negative forecasts.
elon has the luxury of knowing if it fell over tomorrow he will not be destitute.
i terms of relevance to me, none of that applies as i am not a member of this exalted platform.
what is relevant to me is that power being concentrated to one person instead of a BoD and stakeholders.
it has immense potential to influence every aspect of our culture.
it gives rise to manipulation on a mass scale by way of misinformation and political bent.
we have yet to see an internet 'cult', but its coming.
it might be an opportunity to rewrite how we do things.
what if he assembled some great minds to generate a positive culture of progressive ambition and use a global approach to some of the things that plague us?
or it might not.
