Elon Musk’s Twitter Turmoil: FTC Spares X from Data Privacy Breach Disaster

Elon Musk’s “full access” directive could’ve been Twitter’s data privacy downfall, but the FTC found heroes in veteran security staff. They chose consumer protection over Musk’s risky orders, averting a data debacle. Cue the sighs of relief and the FTC’s watchful eye on X’s next…

Hot Take:

Looks like Elon Musk's 'move fast and break things' approach hit a bit of a snag when the FTC played the school principal to Twitter's class clown. Musk’s directive for a data free-for-all at Twitter could've been the privacy equivalent of a food fight in the cafeteria, but the security monitors stepped in just in time to save the day and, potentially, his company’s reputation. Who knew that sometimes the grown-ups in the room aren't just there to spoil the fun?
