    Customers expressing their opinions on your product is part of the market articulating its desires.

      Yes, I don’t disagree my point is there are people that go farther then just voting with there wallet and try to smear other/companies to get what they want.

        I just don’t see this happening based on your above claims.

        More to the point, I don’t see a motive or purpose behind doing this. X is not a competitor for them. It makes no sense for them to try to manipulate the market against X.

          It’s a tool that they could use and were using to manipulate the American people. Because of a lawsuit with HBO Max it has come to light that the CEO was forcing their interns to make fake Twitter post to shut up their dissenters.

            This doesn’t make sense as written

              Sorry, I am doing this to my phone. The point is they benefit from Twitter going back to before Elon Musk where they could police one side and not the other and control what was available

                how does this benefit a business? Do you see the problem with this reasoning?

                  Example: if a Disney movie comes out that’s a hot mess Disney could call up one of their points of contact at old twitter to hide, shadow ban, or alternative the likes. Which did happen with the Marvel movie and rotten tomatoes. No that no longer possible at X.

                    That’s is vastly.more easy to do on X now than it was before.
