Apart from that, a job contract can prevent you from working for a competitor for N number of months or years. You'd be careful of breaking said contract. Thus: the ex-employees didn't have contracts that prevented them from seeking work at a competitor, or the exclusivity period had already ended. Elon Musk cannot win this in court.
Capitalism is incredibly regulated. Regulation is why Musk had to over pay for it in the first place. He broke no laws.
They've applied for a patent. It should not be granted. If Musk tries to enforce it and sues Meta, or whoever, they should fight it. It's this kind of crap that gives software patents a bad name.
I agree. Will Threads attract the 2B+ Instagram monthly active users? It should, unless they are doing something wrong. Will users drop Twitter for Threads? Doubtful — more likely most users utilize both platforms. What platform will a new user choose who has never used any other social media platform for this type of communication? Twitter, most likely.
Which is different from Twitter being full of Elon Stans who pay $8 a month for a blue checkmark? Frankly, Twitter is awful and Threads is an easy move for anyone who already uses Meta...Twitter is doomed.

I have no doubt that one of the European car manufacturers will have this completed way, way before Tesla does...and Tesla had over a decade head start.
You must have misread the Twitter files...which isn't surprising, considering your take on Twitter being akin to Jobs taking over Apple. Elon Musk has not created a single company worth naming, he simply claims to be a founder after the fact.
It's interesting to me that simply being a jerk has become a "political point of view". Anyone that doesn't like a person being a jerk to others is somehow on the other side of the political spectrum...we aren't even talking about economics, national defense, government policy, etc. Simply being a jerk vs. not being one. Yes, that makes me a complete lefty.
Threads is actually tied to Mastadon and will eventually federate with it. BlueSky is another. All three of these platforms point in the direction of social networks being actual networks, similar to email, with users able to exist on one service and talk to others. There's not much money to be made with that approach though, which is why services like Twitter will either have to join in or die.
He's really not that rich, all of his money is tied to one stock - and as he spends that money, he devalues that stock drastically. It will eventually bankrupt him and tank Tesla at this rate...and Tesla investors are taking notice.
Fired employees being "forced" to do anything at all sounds absolutely absurd and highly unlikely.
Level 3 would be considered "beyond full self driving" at Tesla...where their Level 1 "can drive cross country with no human interaction".
That’s fine but I didn’t say anything about Musk. The point I made was regarding the apparent dissolution of concern amongst the tech blog media regarding the abhorrent privacy practices of products belonging to the Zuckerverse.
You are really proving why most CEO's know that every time they open their mouth they have the potential to destroy their company...and Elon just can't shut up.
