Pulling Twitter From POSSE Links (randomgeekery.org)

Lots of Elon Musk madness going on at Twitter. From a Platformer summary of the last day or two.
…as Platformer was first to report, its chief privacy officer, Damien Kieran; its chief information security officer; Lea Kissner; and its chief compliance officer, Marianne Fogarty, had all resigned…So did John Debay, director of software engineering…much of the security governance risks and compliance team has left…
This is on top of all the folks Musk fired or who have resigned in the week since he took over.

Currently frustrated with some very loud Twitter Migration folks. I’m glad you guys are checking out the fediverse through Mastodon, but we are explicitly not a Twitter clone, people have a right to curate their timelines and some of that is done through content warnings, feedback is fine but being a jerk about it is an excellent way to make sure that feedback is ignored, and none of us told you to come over here and completely disrespect the community norms we’ve collectively established.
