The craziness of people with too much money


Billionaire Elon Musk has taken Twitter, a US$44bil company, and dragged it down 90% to an estimated US$4bil. That's just crazy, isn't it? — Bloomberg

In November 2023, American media watchdog group Media Matters alleged that X (formerly Twitter) had run ads for big companies next to posts supporting Neo-Nazis. Understandably companies began pulling their advertising from the platform. Coca-Cola, IBM, Apple and, finally, Disney were among the big companies that didn’t want their products associated with hate of any kind.
