          I was gonna say doors probably won’t chop a dick completely off, but if it’s a cyber truck all bets are off.

    So let me get this straight

    1. buy a platform
    2. ruin it and push away advertisers
    3. tell them you don’t need them and they should go fuck themselves
    4. sue them for leaving

    ?

    Suing former advertisers may possibly not be the best way to get other advertisers to come to your platform.

    Man who told advertisers to go fuck themselves sues advertisers for not spending money on his platform.

    I’m sure this will be sure to bring in tons of advertising dollars to Der Xitter.

    Wow, I didn’t think he could top his past idiocy, but this is pretty impressive. “You were unfair to me because I’m a terrible piece of shit and you didn’t want the association of your brand and my nazi site so you owe me money! It’s just incredible.

    Hat tip, Lonnie. You’ve outdone yourself again.

    Musk is suing under antitrust laws. I’m not sure they work that way. Antitrust laws prevent producers from consolidating and exploiting consumers. However, when it comes to advertising placements, the companies are consumers, not producers, and I don’t think a consumer advocacy group (which the World Federation of Advertisers functions as in this regard) is illegal.

    I don’t know, I am not a lawyer, but it seems like Twitter is grasping at straws here.

      Let’s also note that at any other time, Musk would be railing against antitrust laws.

      I know right? I mean if they colluded to lower advertising prices through collective agreement that would be something. Especially if they had an internal forcing mechanism to ensure compliance.

      But um, they set out voluntary guidelines they suggested everyone follow to protect each member’s own best interests, and decided to spend zero dollars to buy nothing, which is a far far cry from trying to spend zero dollars to buy something.

      What an ultra-maroon.

    Didn’t he sue another company that did tests on the site to see if ads would show up beside hateful content, which showed they would, and that case ended up being dismissed?
