Yes. You should read this: https://www.change.org/impact
Has anyone ever investigated it for data mining?
What does that mean?
I'm sorry, they're taking credit for UPS drivers getting AC and Brittney Griner getting released from a Russian Prison? What nonsense.
Hey, the petition to remove EM is 9 months old and he is no longer CEO...so, those half dozen signatures are another success for change.org!!!...
(massive s/)
But the company is still under EM's control. This sucks.
The s/ stands for sarcasm. I don't think calling someone else CEO changed anything.
I understand that was a sarcasm, but I'm still unhappy that Elon still owns the company and ruining Twitter while people trying hard to stop him.
Honestly, I think there is nothing that can be done now. He owns the place and it will only get worse. I know it sucks as twitter was a great resource for many people but those days are gone forever.
He has such an inflated ego I believe he would rather burn it to the ground than cut his losses, sell it and move on.
That doesn't make sense.
Really? You really think change.org petitions were what achieved those things? Come on.
A petition to remove Elon from Twitter is not like that. It's an important petition to save the world's most useful social networking service. Also, you should stop thinking that Change.org is a bad website (while we see some stupid nonsense petitions).
He's not the CEO of Twitter anymore. The petition had nothing to do with that and it now has no purpose.
But he still owns it and has control over the company as chairman and has made many bad changes to Twitter. Maybe the petition should be repurposed to remove him from Twitter completely.
How is a petition going to make him sell his controlling stake in a private company? He's going to see the petition and say, "well, guess I better sell Twitter."
Lol they're literally saying "just trust me bro". They had nothing to do with any of this shit. They're full of it.
He owns the cesspit.
He is not going anywhere.
This change.org petition remind me of my grandfathers saying about wishing for something:
Wish in one hand, shit in the other and see which one gets full first.
edit: This petition has received 6 signatures in 9 months...
People will do anything to avoid mastodon it seems
I don't think these anti-Musk petitions are for avoiding Mastodon; it could be done along with using Mastodon.
Since June 5, the ceo of twitter has been Linda Yaccarino. So, mission accomplished?
I can only assume this is a glass cliff maneuver from musk
Not yet. The company is still under Musk's control because he owns it, and he's also chairman. Also, the person who launched the petition may not be aware of this.
The petition is 9 months old. When it was started, EM has just taken over.
ROFL. This is a joke, right? Do people really think this will do anything?
Remove musk as CEO
No, let him run it into the ground
No, we shouldn't be anti-Twitter because we're anti-Musk (and this petition too).
Being the CEO or not means nothing. Elon still owns Twitter.
And we have to stop him. We want to remove Elon from Twitter.
How exactly do you plan to do that? You got a spare $40 billion and the ability to coerce him to sell?
Honestly, no. Leave him there. It's what society needs. Maybe it'll finally go under.
Ha. Good luck.
