Twitter bans came after Musk's claim of a 'crazy stalker.' He hasn't reported it to police, LAPD says

Twitter bans came after Musk's claim of a 'crazy stalker.' He hasn't reported it to police, LAPD...

The police statement comes amid controversy over Twitter suspending an account that tracked Musk's private jet as well as the accounts of several journalists who cover Musk.

Major bombing campaign on Ukraine this morning. Several cities are reporting explosions, some attacks were repelled by air defence. My family in Kyiv has counted four rockets over their head. So far.

People really need to understand how mainstream it has become in some tech VC circles to argue that journalism itself is dangerous as an idea and should be abolished, and that it will be up to the tech world to carry this out.

Elon Musk is part of a group of tech executives that have felt increasingly emboldened to attack the press in recent years, but banning the accounts of journalists who’ve written critical things about him is a major escalation.

You may wonder how Elon Musk can be so consistently hilarious. One key technique he uses is to come up with prospective jokes, ask his employees if they're funny, and then fire anyone who says no.
