After X, formerly Twitter, announced yesterday that “likes” would now be privatized and hidden, owner Elon Musk assured users that the move had nothing to do with all the freaky porn stuff he likes, and was strictly for election interference only.
The tech mogul announced the decision on X yesterday, posting: “Important change: ‘Likes’ are now hidden, because there’s a presidential el(r)ection (haha) in five months and I want to make sure far-right posts are heavily boosted anonymously by bot farms, and not because I’m about to get all up in some sweet, sweet tentacle ‘vids.” He finished the post with a stream of eggplant and squid emojis and a single winky face.
