Good morning, team! We’re working toward the end (?) of the Musk-Twitter saga now that the deal is loosely settled and the social media company’s earnings are out. But the latest round of numerical disclosures from Twitter revealed just how dependent the company is on advertising revenues, which highlights a potential weak spot in the plan by the technology mogul to buy and reform its service.

For the sake of clarity, I am a Twitter user and free-speech advocate. By that, I mean that I think that governments should not control the speech of private citizens. This means that I am in favor of Twitter finding a platform posture that allows the maximum of user speech while maintaining a market position that allows it to also run a business.
