It will be interesting to see what happens now with Twitter.
They updated the Policy about sharing peoples personal information...but will this be selective?
Some of the accounts Musk regular likes, replies to...share personal information on others.

So it will be interesting to see how Musk deals with that.
What lie he will spew that allows that.
I cant see him draw a hard line, for that he is already too submissiv towards accounts like Libs of TikTok and others.
