This may finally be the thing that kills twitter. I mean. Twitter is the only platform to do something batshit insane like removing a safety feature like blocking. Twitter is about to become downright dangerous for marginalized populations (LGBTQ+, autistic, sex workers...)
That's what people have been saying about every step of the musk acquisition process and yet still people use Twitter. Thinking back to the Facebook privacy controversy years back, everybody still uses Facebook. There can be an infinite amount of red flags and warnings, but these websites are such a huge part of some people's lives that none of it matters to them, unfortunately.

I don't know a single person under 20 that uses Facebook. It's either paid groups or old people.
Facebook has basically become irrelevant for any discourse outside of "the olds are being radicalized by it"
