X CEO Linda Yaccarino drops out of the WSJ Tech Live conference::X CEO Linda Yaccarino has canceled her appearance at the Wall Street Journal Tech Live conference, citing the war in Israel and her need to “remain fully focused on X platform safety.”
“I need to remain fully focused on platform safety. It’s a good thing we didn’t fire the whole Trust and Safety team, right Elon?”
“…”
“…we did WHAT?”
“Hey Israel called and they asked about when we’re going to delete all the posts celebrating dead Israelis? Sorry Linda are you still there? You’ve gone silent. Linda???”
“Was he just thinking about it, or did he actually plan to do it?”
Even after she gets fired she will always be the x CEO of Twitter.
Formerly known as CEO of X, formerly Twitter
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The “global crisis” in question is almost certainly a reference to the war in Israel, which a resulted in a flood of horrific videos being posted to X.
The Washington Post reports that both accounts “were among the most important early spreaders of a false claim in May that there had been an explosion near the White House.”
Many of the employees who focused on content moderation (known in the industry as “trust and safety”) lost their jobs last year, CNN reports.
Recently, the artist formerly known as Twitter removed headlines from link cards, instead showing only the lead image of the article.
Yaccarino also told the banks that X / Twitter was considering subscription tiers that would vary the number of ads shown to users.
Yaccarino previously said at the Code Conference that 90 percent of advertisers are back on the platform, although they appear to be spending less than before, Bloomberg reported, also citing an anonymous source.
The original article contains 314 words, the summary contains 159 words. Saved 49%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

Fucking gold
This is perfect. We really don’t need to stop calling it as Twitter anyway. Their rebrand is shitty and very incomplete.
I like “Xitter”. It just gets it all right.
You want to fix their mistake by rebranding for them?
Except it isn’t a fair comparison. Prince did it because his former record company was trying to keep him from using his actual birth name (his name really was Prince), he was making a stand. Elon on the other hand is just being a chode.
Guys, stop making fun of her! She is singlehandedly preventing jihad! Leave Linda alone!
