Don't underestimate the extent to which this is bothrsome to Elon. Elon went to great length to do a financially dubious deal in which investor-backed X.ai paid full price for Twitter. Rolling Twitter into an AI bubble valuation company saved Twitter investors from having to admit their investments were losing bets. You would think X.ai investors would be displeased. But everybody's looking real good on paper. Nobody wants to be reminded what a lousy deal the Twitter LBO was, especially when AI valuations look a bit vulnerable.

Ordinarily, I'd say that Politico explaining what the Streisand effect is was a _little_ patronising. But Musk clearly doesn't know what it is, so...

This category of response means that Musk sees himself as above laws, that he's a ruler, not a citizen. Concerning!
