I wonder if Twitter is under new ownership. Elon Musk has arrived at Twitter San Francisco offices. And he's got big ideas about how his platform should be. I believe in the free flow of ideas. Is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like? That is a sign of a healthy functioning free speech situation. Except maybe for one Twitter employee who does just that.
Open up my phone, open up Twitter. One of the first tweets I saw when I opened the app was from his new boss. I'd like to apologize for Twitter being super slow in many countries. App is doing more than 1,000 poorly-batched RPCs just to render a home timeline. I was like, this doesn't make sense. So he responds in the free flow of ideas, tagging Elon for effect. I spent six years working on Twitter for Android and can say this is wrong.
Turns out there are limits to what Elon will tolerate on his platform. He's fired. You know, your heart kind of sinks a little bit. This is the end of eight years. This is how this ride's going to end. From wondering, the makers of We crashed and in God We Lust comes a new series. Flipping the bird. It's a story about what happens when the richest man on the planet decides to acquire a powerful social media company. In the name of free speech.
It started off promising. And then he just kind of, you know, keeps going on and on. But does he have what it takes? I can't believe I have to transition from aliens away from this conversation back to Twitter. What? What's he doing? He's just playing. I'm supposed to leave this in as a genius. Or is this all just about Elon? He's essentially mad that his tweets aren't performing as well as he would have expected that to. He'll like tweet a thing and then everyone's like, we got a work on that now because he tweeted it. But really just felt like, okay, this really is just a platform being ruled by a dictator who does things on his own lens.
And what will be left of Twitter by the time he's done? Basically my entire team was gone by the end of it. Infrastructure was just completely gutted. They literally auctioned off the contents of the Market Street San Francisco Twitter headquarters. It just felt like everything it was kind of descending into chaos.

到他完成之时,Twitter还能剩下什么?基本上,我的整个团队都离开了。基础设施已经被完全摧毁了。他们甚至拍卖了位于旧金山市场街的Twitter总部的内容。一切似乎都陷入了混乱。我是战争中的商业主持人大卫·布朗。请在Amazon Music或任何您得到播客的地方关注"Flipping the Bird, Elon vs. Twitter"。
