For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

So I have a really really dumb question:
As the owner of Twitter, who probably has access to the database directly, couldn't he just get a database dump of his kids tweets?
Or have a developer, oh I'm sorry, chatGPT develop an app just for him to be able to view all tweets?
This seems like firing a nuke for something akin to a knife wound.
He wouldn't even need to do that. He could literally just make a third account (assuming his daughter is blocking the one where Elon pretends to be an actual child) and see all the posts he wants. This is truly Elon solving a problem only Elon has, by nuking a feature tons of folks use.
You can just make a new account... it's not like blocking someone stopped them from ever viewing your tweets again. Blocking was always just to stop viewing their tweets.
He probably could. But he’ll spin this into ‘make speech free again’(tm) or some hulkshit
