Famed tech journalist (Walt Mossberg) deletes X account with epic rant at Elon Musk
Tech writer legend slams X owner Elon Musk for threatening to ban and sue the Anti-Defamation League
Veteran tech journalist Walt Mossberg announced on Tuesday he was deactivating his X (formerly known as Twitter) account, saying Elon Musk’s takeover of the site turned it into a “cesspool.”
Mr Mossberg is a well-respected name and expert in the US tech writing industry, who also co-founded media sites such as Recode and AllThingsD. He announced his boycotting of X on Meta’s new platform Threads, saying his reasons revolve around business tycoon Mr Musk’s threats to sue the Anti-Defemation League (ADL).
You're viewing a single thread.
He continued on to say he will only be found on Threads, Facebook, LinkedIn and Instagram
Mastodon: “Am I a joke to you?“ >:(

He’s been active again in the last 24 hours since deleting his twitter:
He did announce it there too.
Yeah leaving a "cesspool" for meta, way to give yourself credence...
