Jahas.. Elon oli lavalla
haastattelussa (Dealbook summit ja new york timesin Andrew Ross Sorkin).
Mainostajien boikotti tappaa twitterin ja mainostajat voi painua v*ttuun. Ilmeisesti Twitterin nykylinjassa ei ole mitään vikaa, vika on vain mainostajissa.
"I hope they stop. Don't advertise," Musk said in response to Sorkin's question (
see video).
Perplexed, Sorkin asked, "you don't want them to advertise?"
"No," Musk responded. "What do you mean?" Sorkin asked.
"If somebody is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money? Go fuck yourself," Musk said.
Sorkin replied, "but," and trailed off. Musk wasn't done. "Go fuck yourself. Is that clear? I hope it is. Hey, Bob!" Musk said. Musk was apparently addressing Disney CEO Bob Iger, who previously
said at the conference that advertising on X "was not necessarily a positive" association and so Disney "decided we would pull our advertising."
Ja:
Even before the latest controversy, Musk's X platform was
struggling financially. Sorkin pressed Musk on the economics of pushing away advertisers, pointing out that X CEO "Linda Yaccarino is right here and she's got to sell advertising."
Musk responded that the advertising boycott is likely to kill the company. "What this advertising boycott is going to do is it's going to kill the company, and the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company and we will document it in great detail," Musk said.
When Sorkin pointed out that advertisers see things differently, Musk replied, "oh yeah? Tell it to Earth." Sorkin continued: "They're going to say, Elon, that you killed the company because you said these things and they were inappropriate things and they didn't feel comfortable on the platform. That's what they're going to say."
"And let's see how Earth responds to that," Musk replied.
