X’s CEO tells staff data will show efforts to fight hate, as advertisers flee::Social media company X CEO Linda Yaccarino told employees that “data will tell the real story” about its efforts to battle antisemitism, according to a note to employees, amid growing outrage over the issue.
Written be Elon, parroted by CEO.
There has never been a more useless CEO role in a company.
How much effort that they’ve put into battling hate speech is irrelevant; all that matters is how successful those efforts are. It feels like there is far more hate speech on the platform than there was a couple of years ago, ergo they’re failing.
If I were an advertiser concerned that my brand will appear alongside rampant neo-Naziism, it would be scarce comfort to be told “yeah, but we tried…”
It’s interesting that Elons companies always seem to have internal data that can’t be verified by third party and the data always show that the company has done nothing wrong. Weird how the current CEO seem to operate exactly in the same way Elon would.
He is like Alex Jones. But instead of piles of random blank papers being “facts” it’s the “data”
I like the data they had to release under new EU regulations so far. For example, they have a single employee that speaks my native language, which is sixth most-spoken among languages of the European Union. It definitely shows when trying to report things like “kill yourself” posts, which apparently is OK with both Twitter terms of service and local law (that one came as surprise to me and would probably surprise lawyers as well).
As if a CEO had any idea of data, other than requesting it from their staff.
“Data will show” if they had the data, they would have shown it already instead of making false promises about the future.
As a CEO, they should know that the data is pretty much available instantaneously. It’s all digital.
Assuming it’s truthful, she wouldn’t have been able to make the claim without already having the data meaning there is no reason why we’d all need to ‘wait and see’ especially with something so damaging to the company.
Assuming it’s a lie, all she needs to do is make the false claim and hope it leads to good PR before everyone forgets about it and the news cycle moves on. This explains why she’d tell us to wait and see.
“The data will show it. We’re just not done falsifying it yet.”
