--It is EXTREMELY URGENT that government agencies, emergency groups, and others who have over time become dependent on #Twitter to disseminate important announcements to the public, now move quickly to prepare alternative methods (which they really should have already).

It is clear that Musk's behavior is decimating Twitter as a reliable platform for reaching the public without interference, and since Musk now says he will let all hate speech and disinformation that is "not illegal or spam" be propagated on Twitter, even from previously suspended accounts, Twitter will now rapidly become of zero value as a source of trustworthy information on any topics.

--I am now receiving reports of child abuse materials (CSAM) surfacing on #Twitter as results from ordinary, nonsexual searches, and that efforts to report such materials to Twitter are either being ignored or receive "does not violate our TOS" responses. Horrific if true.
