A couple of thoughts here. Elon is no dummy. He’s a smart guy, and is surrounded by some VERY smart nerds. (As a fellow nerd I can call them that). If they provide a bunch of data, the nerds could whip up some code to parse it into easy to digest chunks. So “Overwhelm them with BS” might not work. Secondly, if they report a bunch of fake info, and the sale goes through, and Elon and crew get access to the REAL info, that’s a lawsuit/criminal charges waiting to happen. I suspect the SEC would frown on such shenanigans.
And lastly (I guess I had 3 things, not 2). If #2 were to happen, everyone associated with it would be fired, and he would still own Twitter. Which MIGHT still end up being a good thing.
That was my sense of this also. It would be incredibly stupid of Twitter to try and play games here. Elon no doubt has highly competent engineers on his team... I wouldn’t mess with him...
> So “Overwhelm them with BS” might not work.
Elon has the best AI people around. Give them the raw data and they’ll slice and dice it to make it tell the truth. Should be pretty straightforward to unmask any obfuscations. They’ll do it for fun just to see what is in there.
