Under Elon Musk, X, the former Twitter site, moderation was largely removed and it has turned into a cesspool of disinformation, political extremism, crackpot conspiracy theories, grifters and bots.Elon Musk promoting his own extremist divisive opinions on the site is worrying.The “verified” label just means the account has paid some money and have a phone number – no deterrent to grifters and foreign government agencies trying to manipulate public opinion and cause division in Western democracies.Opaque algorithms for which accounts/posts get boosted and which de-boosted cause concern.As I write, the mobile version is working but the browser-based version is broken and unusable. It hasn't been functioning properly for days.Any plusses? Community Notes are good. Grok AI kind of works. Hot news appears quickly (along with hot lies). Enough to raise the rating from 0 to 1 star.
