And Elon was banning journalists for reporting about the whereabouts of his private jet based on publicly accessible information.

I think really stretching the definition of doxing to target journalists who were doing some pretty critical reporting of his acquisition at the time.

So, again, I have no – there's no fault or no – I have no qualms, I guess, with my friends in the media who have said we're never coming back as long as Elon's running it.

But it's interesting to see Nikita say, look, like –

You'll get traffic.

I mean, he posted like this is the biggest arbitrage opportunity of your career for your journalist to come back because we have the audience.

I think it's like half a billion plus people a month coming to the platform.

Who knows how many of those are bots?

But, you know, and, you know, time spent is at a record high.

I don't think that's true, though.

Hmm.

That's interesting.

I mean, that also speaks to what Nikita said about the algorithm.

No, no, no.

I think I think I think what they've done is they've replaced the traditional algorithm, which had a bunch of classifiers and labels that someone like Elon could go down rank so and so down rank this category of content or these accounts to this purely grok based, which is like.

Um,

Well, I don't think they have a lot of news on the platform.

That's the problem.

I mean, that's that's why he was doing the interview is like they need the posters to come back.

And journalists were the posters.
