Twitter is in business to make money. If that wasn&#x27;t really clear before Elon, it is now. So they&#x27;re going to monetize it as best they can.<p>There are a quite a few people who might point out that since Elon&#x27;s very rich, he&#x27;s obviously better at business than any of us, therefore just go away. I don&#x27;t subscribe to that. But better for you isn&#x27;t necessarily better for Twitter if they don&#x27;t see more money for it.
