Charging for links (which is full on nuts) is a great way to turn a business into a charity.
Preventing or charging for links is so absurd from a business perspective--especially for a social media site that is 99.99% marketing--that it must be some philosophical stand devoid of any business logic.

One thing I noticed about Musk is that he does his deliberation post decision making (releases early and release often)--which is unusual outside of geek circles--but it really seems to work for him. I'm not predicting what Musk's final decision will be, but Musk deliberates post decision. The arguments for or against happen now.
I agree, but it's not a model for social media. I would be one thing if twitter were like youtube (it would still be crazy for youtube to do it) and had actual content. RussiaGate research and the TwitterFiles isn't going to sell ads.
On one level it would be great if Musk follows through on this--get it over with. How much time did Pierre Omidyar waste--too much.
Ultimately all this comes down to to power. If you can't cook, you have to pay someone to cook for you. It's really not anymore complicated than that.

Now not the time to submit.
Charging for links isn't that different from selling ad space- they pay a price to market their content on the platform.
