Twitter to Become “X,” an Everything App

Elon Musk sent a somewhat crytpic tweet saying the purchase of Twitter is to ignite X, the everything app. We have SpaceX, and now TwitterX?

“X” sounds like competition for “Meta,” only with free speech. Some reporters suggest he will make some trivial effort at free speech, and nothing will change. I don’t think so. The social media exchange portion might be minimized as the app branches out, but it won’t be the same. Hopefully, he doesn’t ruin it.

One Twitter user said, “What exactly does X do? Payments? Buying and selling? General economic infrastructure?”

Another user responded, “Watch the show “startup” on Netflix. It’s an all-in-one app that you do everything in. Think web search, chat, payment, social media…all in one app. The premise is you only have one app on your phone and don’t need anything else.

Would that ruin Twitter? It sounds like a Klaus Schwab app in its breadth. It could be very exciting. He seems to have come up with a grand plan to move it forward.

Trouble has already begun. Here is one ‘news’ reporter saying he won’t go on Twitter if Donald Trump’s allowed to tweet. Nathan is missing the whole point of free speech. Anyway, Trump already said he wouldn’t go back on Twitter.

I like it that the snowflakes will leave. Huge portions of the internet are for mature audiences only. People like this Dan guy, whoever he is, should probably stick with email. Email allows them to save all of their pronouns in the signature lines and they don’t have to go 2% outside their comfort zone to hear what the adults are talking about.

I will be all for it if it’s a pay for app. When the People fund something they have a lot more control because the “operator” has to listen to the people paying for the service instead of the Oligarchs funding the venture via “Advertising”. We also need to revisit what we consider what a company can call “proprietary information”. When doing business with the Government nothing should be proprietary, when providing a for pay service, very little should be propriety about how information is used.
