Elon Musk fought the law. The law appears to have won.
X, Musk’s social media platform, has backed down in its fight with the Brazilian judiciary, after complying with court orders that had blocked users in the country from accessing X.
The platform bowed to one of the key demands made by Brazil’s supreme court by appointing a legal representative in the country. It also paid outstanding fines and took down user accounts that the court had ordered to be removed on the basis that they threatened the country’s democracy, the New York Times reported.
However, the battle is not quite over. The supreme court said X had not filed the proper documentation showing that it had appointed Rachel de Oliveira Conceicao as its Brazilian representative. It gave the company five days to present documents validating her appointment.
You know, Elon is not the one really dealing with this. It’s still employees.
Not defending Elon or X here though. They got what they deserved.
I wonder what goes through his employees’ heads who are still working there. Do they still even believe in the service??? Do they support their boss?
They collect their paychecks and hope they never have to deal with him on any personal basis. It’s not too dissimilar from most jobs in that regard, but these were all once companies that employees might have put extra pride/effort into in the past. Doubtful much of that enthusiasm remains under these guy.
Don’t overthink it. The remaining employees are just there for the money.
You just described “work”.
