Ruling clears way for lawsuit brought against company over fatal crash in 2019 in which Stephen Banner was killed near MiamiA judge has found “reasonable evidence” that Elon Musk and other executives at Tesla knew that the company’s self-driving technology was defective but still allowed the cars to be driven in an unsafe manner anyway, according to a recent ruling issued in Florida.

Elon Musk’s worst nightmare
https://i.insider.com/6526f5a865…
In 2021, an engineer named Missy Cummings drew the ire of Elon Musk on the social network then called Twitter. A professor at Duke University, Cummings had conducted research on the safety of self-driving cars, and the findings led her to issue some stark warnings about Tesla's driver-assistance tech. The cars, she wrote, had "variable and often unsafe behaviors" that required more testing "before such technology is allowed to operate without humans in direct control." On the strength of her research, Cummings was appointed to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration — to help with regulation of robot cars.
Tesla fans reacted with their usual equanimity and sense of perspective, by which I mean they absolutely lost it. Their insistence that Cummings would attempt to unfairly regulate their boy Elon soon prompted Musk himself to join the thread. "Objectively," he tweeted, "her track record is extremely biased against Tesla." In response, Musk's stans unleashed their full fury on Cummings — her work, her appearance, her motives. They accused her of conflicts of interest, signed petitions demanding her removal, and emailed death threats.

Ubisoft has 'paused' advertising on Twitter
Ubisoft has confirmed that it has joined other major companies who have paused advertising on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, following a Media Matters report which claims that the platform has been running ads for companies including Apple, IBM, NBCUniversal, and Comcast owner Xfinity next to pro-Nazi content. X denies that regular users will see such ads next to extremist content, claiming that Media Matters intentionally manipulated a feed to produce that result.
The list of companies who have halted activity on X is long and potentially extremely damaging for a platform struggling with a decline in advertising revenues: IBM, Apple, Disney, Warner Bros, Lionsgate, NBCUniversal, Xfinity, Sony, and others have all opted to stop running ads, at least temporarily.

- That content in the UK is illegal and would be removed under law which I would 100% support.Morning_star

- Actually I personally wouldn't ban Nazis but I understand why Germany does.yuekit

- more like social acceptability of certain ideas. Does everyone have to advertise on Gab and 4chan, they can't say no to that? Censorship is the wrong word IMO.yuekit

- Can you find where I said Musk should be censored? It's not even possible because the USA has First Amendment.yuekit
- That doesn't mean we can't criticize him or that advertisers can't stop advertising on the site. Or even that Media Matters can't advocate for them to stopyuekit

Paris Hilton's entertainment company is suspending an advertising campaign on X, according to CNN, expanding the list of companies fleeing the social platform after billionaire Elon Musk's recent tweet endorsing an antisemitic conspiracy theory.
The move by 11:11 Media to distance itself from X, formerly known as Twitter, comes only a month after the companies announced an exclusive partnership that would include live video and commerce. X CEO Linda Yaccarino in October welcomed Hilton to the "@X family," tweeting: "The queen of pop culture, music, business and TV is #Sliving on X."

Bluesky is getting to the point where it's a viable alternative IMO. There's always a collective action problem in switching to another app or social network because all the people are on the original app and so no one wants to switch over, but I think it's approaching the level where there are enough users that it works.
Just hope they continue to build out the UI and add more features. Right now it's like a clone of Twitter, a little snappier in terms of perfomance but lacking some features such as DMs. Also more difficult than it should be to discover new content and people to follow.
On the positive side though you aren't being bombarded with OnlyFans girls and crypto scammers every ten seconds.
- The Onlyfans spam accounts on Twitter seem to really like the generative art posts and 1980's animations I post.PhanLo
- Musk seems to be completely losing it, so shouldn't take that long before everyone that doesn't support Nazis and Trump leaves.formed
- Yeah those OF accounts are relentless. Are they real or is it AI generated fake porn? I don't understand how "X" can't block spam that follows the same format.yuekit
- Instagram is the same lately, I keep getting added to crypto and porn groups even though I've blocked all the participants.PhanLo

Elon Musk calls strikes ‘insane’ as Swedish workers take on Tesla
Strike at carmaker prompts sympathy action from dockers, painters and postal workers in fight over Swedish labour model
Elon Musk has decried a wave of “insane” strikes focused on Tesla workshops in Sweden, as workers target the US electric car manufacturer in a strike calling for collective bargaining rights.
In what has been portrayed as the largest fight in decades to save Sweden’s union model from global labour practices, the powerful trade union IF Metall has been leading a strike across eight Tesla workplaces in Sweden for five weeks.
It is the first time workers for the US carmaker have gone on strike and on Thursday, Musk, the tech billionaire and chief executive of Tesla, made his feelings clear, writing on X, formerly Twitter: “This is insane.”
He was responding to a social media post about secondary, or sympathy, strikes by Swedish postal services that are preventing licence plates reaching new Tesla cars.

- when you do encounter a south african chances are they'll be white (as they can afford to flee). Don't call the black population native as he'll be offended.hotroddy

Paris mayor calls X a ‘global sewer’
The mayor of Paris says she is quitting X, formerly Twitter, arguing the social media platform has “become a gigantic global sewer” that counters democracy and peaceful debate.
In a lengthy post titled “Why I am leaving Twitter” on Monday, Anne Hidalgo said it has “become an impressive tool for destroying our democracies.”
“Today, controversy, rumor and crude manipulation rule public debate, fueled by Twitter’s algorithm, where the only thing that counts is the number of ‘likes.’ Facts are irrelevant,” Hidalgo wrote.
Without directly naming Elon Musk, she said under “its owner” the platform “intentionally exacerbates tensions and conflicts.”
“This medium has become a gigantic global sewer, and we should continue to wade into it?” Hidalgo asked, adding later, “With its thousands of anonymous accounts and its troll farms, life on Twitter is the exact opposite of democratic life.”
