Rumored to be in the works for the past year, the initiative appears to have begun rolling out recently, with email solicitations being sent to potential buyers.
I thought all the attention Trump was getting in the news in 2016 would tank him because he always said and did the STUPIDEST shit. It’s hard not to think that exposing as many people as possible to how awful these toxic, narcissistic guys are would make people see the light and help end their crap. But for some reason it doesn’t. Does ignoring it help? I have no idea. Too dumbfounded still to this day.
Negative press should be promoted. Everything else should be downvoted. This article isn’t negative, but rather a desperate attempt to stay in the 24 hour news cycle.
I’m curious why you read it that way? This is Elon Musk’s company putting out a PR release for their latest strategy to make money (and make the news). This is Twitter desperately trying to stay relevant. Sharing this information only serves to give free advertising to Twitter.
“Legal identity theft”? Haha, that’s funny. You have no idea what you’re talking about and you’re drumming up controversy where there is none. You’re just a PR pawn for Twitter, but you’re not intelligent enough to realize it.
What else are you gonna call selling someone’s digital identity?

The only person here being an idiot is you and those like you. Y’all think sticking your head in the sand will somehow make it all go away. Like it or not the shithead owns Twitter. Like it or not he’s one of the richest people on the planet. Like it or not that makes his petty ass extremely powerful. Like it or not there are retards who take digital identies seriously and won’t accept the line of “that isn’t me, Twitter must’ve sold my account” as an excuse when a username you use elsewhere suddenly starts spouting neonazi propaganda.
Also I hope y’all are happy with this type of behavior because this kind of toxic behavior will kill lemmy in the long run, just like it killed every other Reddit alternative… Y’all make Reddit seem downright positive.
The only spam I see are the comments like this underneath every post referring to the one richest douche-bros on the planet. We get it. You hate the dude, but like it or not what he does has actual ramifications on real people and corporations. That makes him and his actions newsworthy… Screaming on Lemmy about how you’d like to be an ostrich and stick your head in the sand till he goes away isn’t gonna change that fact.
Downvote Musk spam.
The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring him and his businesses stay in the 24 hour news cycle. Don’t be a useful idiot.

I guess I read this as bad press!

Just like you said, the desperation. The act is laughable. But I guess you’re right, I’d rather nobody knew about it and it failed miserably instead
So you think Musk ordering Twitter to engage in legal identity theft and selling user accounts like a hacker would is somehow a good look?

Wow, you really are too stupid to realize you’re a pawn for Twitter’s PR team. Go back to Reddit.
Responding before this inevitability gets down-voted into oblivion.
i know this post is common, and it seems annoying to read this when all you want to do is “read the news”
But remember, even a repeating name in a headline is propaganda and you are not immune.

We get it, you want to simp for Elon Musk. Unfortunately, all the dick sucking you’re doing isn’t going to make him notice you.
What the fuck? What kind of simp would call the person they are allegedly dumping for an asshole?
All I said was that just because we hate him doesn’t make news about him “spam”.
