Also, donโ€™t leave your account unused, delete it. User and follower numbers count.

And least as important, reply (if necessary to another corporate mail address) every email with Twitter/X in the footer, with a kind request to stop promoting and facilitating X.

So you really were arguing that Twitter providing a built-in child porn generator isn't a valid reason to leave it?

No, like I said in the original post, there are tons of reasons to leave Xitter, but child abuse requires a child be abused and so the OP image is wrong about it having a child abuse tool - you can't make Xitter or Grok abuse a child.

Unless Elon's built something else entirely and we're not just talking about Grok not refusing image generation requests that it probably ought to. Someone should probably check if the Xitter offices have a basement like a certain pizza place was accused of, just to be safe.

Ok let's start over. Ignore the context in the previous comments, pretend I'm asking you this for the first time, with no lead up:

Do you think it's reasonable to leave Twitter because they provide a tool that can be used to generate child porn?
