Analysis of 22K US broadband bills highlights issues: far higher average cost than in Europe at $75/month, little carrier choice, bogus charges, and more

Elon Musk seems poised to accomplish something actually valuable: to prove that digital institutions which seem permanent can fail quickly, easily, and unceremoniously. Even Facebook will be a fleeting footnote. Every platform wants you to believe it is inevitable and undying

elon musk is so good at negotiation he paid $44 billion for something worth ~$10 and then as his first order of business he proposed a $20 monthly subscription and immediately revised that down to $8 because Stephen King told him to fuck off. brilliant stuff

Elon Musk says the blue checkmark system is “bullshit” and Twitter Blue will be $8/month with half the ads, priority in replies, mentions, and search, and more

Twitter's current lords & peasants system for who has or doesn't have a blue checkmark is bullshit. Power to the people! Blue for $8/month.

Filing: Twitter says Elon Musk's counterclaims “are factually inaccurate, legally insufficient, and commercially irrelevant” and don't justify ending the deal

Dan Primack / Axios :

idea that Musk was tricked into buying Twitter when claim from the outset was that he wanted to solve the bot problem, and then later claimed the company was tricking him about there being bots, is so fundamentally dishonest and cynical that he should get the book thrown @ him

speaking very personally, Instagram's value was based on these core things for me: 1. felt far more personal than Facebook after FB started to resemble an unhinged psychological experiment 2. offered a very glossy look at life for self and others 3. wasn't cluttered with ads

Adam Mosseri says Instagram will roll back some recent changes after a week of mounting criticism, including temporarily reducing the number of recommendations

Say goodbye to the full-screen feed, and at least some of those recommendations — for now.  Adam Mosseri explains why

nonetheless, I imagine it's a good move to reverse course here and lean into what core users want. TikTok stuff goes everywhere - including Twitter. good content that people want to see will always spread across platforms...

... but it's very interesting to see that trying to capture audience by mimicking features and formats is not a slam dunk even when you're starting from a position with unbelievable scale. really reinforces the idea that actual people drive culture on platforms
