      Well that makes the assumption of no new service rises to replace twitter, which given development and spreading of Internet is pretty bad bet.

      All this leads to is momentary disruption until people settle on the new replacement, whatever that ends up being.

      All this does is caused sacking of twitter employees and Musk burning a pile of money. Oh and politics wonks and journalists have to change their congregation behavior to new place.
