Layoffs, threats, censorship, and an impromptu reopening. The world of social media is rapidly changing, owing primarily to the impetus provided by Elon Musk. Tesla's billionaire owner, fresh from acquiring Twitter, is already imposing major change on an industry in crisis. And he's doing it through a series of contentious decisions that not all users of the well-known Twitter social network have discovered, including some very famous ones like Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails.
Trent Reznor, the first of Musk's new Twitter, decided to leave Twitter, most likely permanently, after what happened in the last few days.
The same artist, industrial metal legend and Nine Inch Nails frontman, admitted to The Hollywood Reporter, "leaving Twitter" . We don't need the conceit of the billionaire class, who believe they can arrive and solve everything. Even without him, I believe the environment has become toxic.
Trent Reznor's words, and especially the reactivation of Donald Trump's Twitter account, sparked debate in America, prompting Catturd to make an ironic post.
Musk, eager to respond to the musician, indirectly, through a comment on this twitter: «And it turns out that Trent 'nine inch nails' Reznor is actually a crybaby.» Words that did not move the musician, who chose to deactivate his account on November 20th, abandoning over 1 million and a half followers.
