Elon Musk is Right About Twitter Faking Its Importance and Using Doctored, Manipulated 'Stats' (or Bots) to Boost Valuation Based on Lies

This is fraud (they defraud several parties here)

March 13; I quit Twitter start of March; I have posted anything in a month!!; Musk enters Twitter, then offers to buy; SEC investigation; Musk walks away as traffic is fake
Notice how suddenly the number of impression quadrupled for no reason at all (as I noted at the time) and stayed at that level until the blunder reached the press (plus the SEC investigation)



Summary: Today's empirical proof that Twitter is totally faking its relevance and reach/influence, based on "Analytics" of my long-inactive account; the SEC will once again -- quite likely as usual -- let Musk get away with it, killing a company for personal gain as a temporary shareholder who amassed a ton of free publicity (he paid nothing at all and sent the company into a death spiral, pretty much in the same way Microsoft and Icahn did Yahoo! or Microsoft and Elop did Nokia)
