If he implements a Voight-Kampff Test, make sure you are not positive.

That's the problem with you kids (collective) today, you're having a hard time distinguishing real life from make believe.

Since the Twitter caper I have grown disenchanted with Musk. Yes, I will give him SpaceX, love that. Tesla: jury's still out on that one. Ask me in a year, if the stock bubble still exists. But Mars? Solar panels? Self-driving electric 18-wheelers? Hyperloops? Chips in your brain? He's mostly hot air. I've watched a few skeptic videos and when they showcase his many various tech talks and claims, he's really underdelivered on some wild promises. This video really helps break down his pattern and penchant for attention.

Even Starlink looks untenable as a profit-making enterprise.

Boy, this is getting crazy. First, Elon tried to buy Twitter and Twitter tried to avoid the takeover.

Then Elon changed his mind (too late!) and now he wants to walk away but Twitter will not let him.

This is one time Elon's cocky mouth got him in deep.

So is Musk's claim that Twitter did not provide him substantial data on the number of fake accounts, as they were obligated by contract, just a strawman argument?

Don't know, but the press and analysts here are confident that it is.
