Any reputable brand will withdraw adex from a platform that presents a risk to that brand.

If a platform cannot guarantee some sort of limit to what people can say or do then there's potentially a brand risk of my ad appearing next to contentious content and being associated with that content. Same thing happened to Facebook and Youtube, and they were forced to improve moderation.

It is just the lay of the advertising landscape. You have limited ad budget, so you're going to find the lowest risk highest return platform.

The other crappy thing for Twitter is that engagement and conversion for advertisers has not been great the last couple of years, so it's pretty easy to justify a shift of Twitter adex to any other channel that performs even marginally better.

No talking about the fan base.

Lots of people have many followers, they going to be pissed if they lose a third of their followers.

And Apple won their case against Epic. Fortnight is still not back on Apple platform. I don't care for Apple, but it's their environment. You have to play by their rules on their platform.

Musk must create his own phone ... problem solved.
Yeah you could spot the misogynist gaybashing gunswinging antivaxxer republitards a mile away then just by which phone they have:ROFL:

Musk cares so much about free speech that he's...purging leftist voices


Left-Wing Voices Are Silenced on Twitter as Far-Right Trolls Advise Elon Musk

Elon Musk appears to have out-sourced decisions about who to ban from Twitter to the platform’s right-wing extremists.
