People don't want others, namely stalkers, to be able to see what they're posting. It's not a huge deal, but X is one of the few platforms that is going to allow it.
... You know how easy it is to create another random email account and make a new account? Or for that matter just go incognito in your browser and you can see all that persons posts anyway.


Exactly, it's a non-issue that they will treat as a threat and use against Elon, it's pathetic.

If you get caught doing the former on X or almost anywhere else, it's a permanent ban. And the latter doesn't work for viewing accounts that have blocked you on X.

I really don't care, because I can't think of anyone that I've followed that's blocked me. But there's a legitimate reason why some people may want to block others from ever viewing their posts.

Doubtful you would get caught in the first instance unless you make 23984729384 accounts from the same IP. Not to mention, just use your phone or any other device with a different IP address.

On the second point, if you use incognito and go to someone's profile, you can see any post that they have made... WITHOUT logging in.

Elon sued for using AI generated image in the style of Bladerunner 2049.

Production company that owns the rights says Elon has irreparably damaged their brand and they are unlikely to ever recover.

Now for more Russia Russia Russia but this time against Musk.

Now that Musk has defied the establishment and is backing Trump, they will now try to bend him to their will...

First twitter, now on a much smaller scale Vivek is a big shareholder/buying potentially Buzzfeed, which is pretty hilarious:

On this latest JRE, Rogan says he was talking to Dana White who was with Trump along with Elon at Trump's victory party.

Dana White says Elon had created some kind of app to analyze election results and showed him the app and so forth in conversation.

Anyway, about 4-hours before it became clear that Trump had won, he says Elon checks his phone, gets up from the table and says 'Donald' has won this'. then leaves the party and goes home.

Hilarious They'll be a clip made of this story at some point.

Yep. Record numbers of blacks and Hispanics voted for Trump because of white supremacy.

Riiiiight.

203-year old newspaper rages; says will no longer post on X due to 'disturbing content.'

The only other social medium I use besides Texags is Facebook. I have never used Twitter or Bluesky (which I just recently heard of).

I have noted that a number of my friends on Facebook who voted Democrat have decided to leave Twitter and go to Bluesky and are recruiting others to do the same. One is a cancer patient who has become very active in patient advocacy and said she was tired of the "hate and porn." One is anti-Musk. I don't know about the rest.

Is Bluesky going to be a threat to Musk?

Threat in what way? His personal wealth of $300B+ is greater than the valuation of all but about the top 30 companies that trade on NYSE or NASDAQ. Yes I'm sure people will leave X but Musk is going to be alright...

Too many important news and discussions/insights are reported via X so it's not going away no matter how many libs wishcast it to be true.

From the X comments:

I wish they recorded the meeting. All I know is that he told them to conduct a mass firing and hire three new conservative board members like Patrick Bet-David and Clay Travis

Clay Travis on the board of Buzzfeed! That should be hilarious!
