Unfortunately, yes. But a simple DNS change can do the trick.
I mean the "official" DNS of your country is usually a bad choice anyway.
Maybe they should have done a little industry research to see if this was a good idea.
Oh well, Elon Musk Genius, Dogecoin dogecoin dogecoin, monkey art
What's also weird is that Twitter does in fact contain a lot of porn. When Tumblr banned porn, Twitter was one of the top choices that people were recommending.
They did, many years ago with the PayPal merge. Musk wanted x.com, all the research said people saw it negatively, and Musk still pushed for it, until eventually he was ousted as CEO.
I was curious about the Musk experiment, but I think he's proven himself to be an idiot now. How did SpaceX do so well?
It's simple, SpaceX is one of the companies they don't let him influence. The engineers just handle SpaceX because it's too complicated for him.
Same with neuralink.
Also remember that Musk didn't start any of these companies. He merely invested enough to become the face of the company. He's only really ever started X.com, but that code was thrown out when he merged with Peter Thiel's company.
This is just completely untrue. Musk founded SpaceX from nothing, there was no prior entity he acquired or invested in.

There are lots of legitimate reasons to dislike Musk, there's really no need to make up lies about him to justify having an extremely low opinion of him.
He bought his way into the Mars Society and then was introduced to a whole bunch of people with real experience. Yes, he "created" SpaceX, but he did it the same way he does everything else...by throwing gobs of money at something that already exists and then having actual smart people figure out the hard stuff.
I think somebody at SpaceX said they do better when Musk isn't around
I guess they did well despite him. People who can send rockets to space probably also know how to deal with rich idiots.
Having followed SpaceX for a very long time, I think that Elon kinda figured early on how to get engineers excited for a lofty goal and give them sufficient room to fail and innovate, whilst squeezing every drop of work out of them.
So he was a good hype man for things he broadly understood and he was willing to put loads of money into making it successful.
But following a long tradition of people who are actually excellent in a narrow field, he convinced himself that he can translate this into imposing weird and frankly really stupid philosophy onto the world. The Bloombergs and the Carsons of the world have already failed at this, happily it looks like he will too. Not that he'll learn anything from it, just hope he goes away and stops trying.

Since it's not Twitter anymore, we should replace "tweeting" by "Xcreting". (It's not mine, saw it on Reddit, but I think the idea deserves more exposure!)
Indonesia blocked most porn sites and reddit as well. But not twitter. Apparently, government officials are using it to "communicate" to the citizens.
Nothing of value was lost.
Don’t care
