I'm going to guess bots/fakes are about 50% of all users. But the metric being evaluated is very specific.
It's not me, it's someone else.
I think that's why he wants it done.
Does that include alternate accounts?
If you are correct, it would be quite a blow to Twitter's value.

True story: Twitter already does it. And provided it to him.
I dunno.
Twitter knows a bunch of accounts are fake, but they don't "monetize" them.
It's not me, it's someone else.
Maybe 4 accounts from the same IP is a family. Maybe it's one loser with 3 sock puppets. How do you check?

I'm making this up right now, so if the nuts jobs get a hold of this, you can refer them back here.
This will be the conspiracy theory:
This entire Twitter purchased was spearheaded by the Illuminati, of which Musk is a member. They know a large portion of those accounts are fake. However, they wanted a financial reason behind needing to enforce "membership" or "authenticating" all social media accounts. That way it doesn't look like the government is trying to control thought and speech on social media, and tracking who is a dissenter, but that's exactly what's happening.

LibsofTikTok gets some telling internal messages from Twitter.
Obviously, this is a biased article, but the Twitter employees' conversation is pretty disturbing. Apparently there is a "genocide" going on right now against transpeople. You'd think CNN or somebody would cover such an event...

Musk will be taking questions from Twitter employees.
That will be fun.


That will be fun.
This woman (remember she was doxed by a left wing journalist) received dozens of death threats in the past few days. All the accounts that threatened her were active and Twitter wasn't doing shit because she's a right winger.

I'd prefer they apply the rules to everyone, equally.

I don't trust the people making those judgments. They could be stupid, insane, zealots, or paid to be biased.

You lost me. What is "freedom of speech" about tweeting that you're going to murder her?
Also, as you have pointed out, it's a private company with their own rules and free speech doesn't apply. Threats are clearly against their TOS and they ban others for it, so...
