A Saudi Prince's Attempt to Silence Critics on Twitter

An ongoing investigation reveals how Mohammed bin Salman's team allegedly infiltrated the platform—and got away with it.

tldr; an employee at Twitter who felt loyal to Saudi Arabia helped the prince identify and "silence" critics in Twitter.
When the FBI notified Twitter, the idiots didn't want to turn in their employee, "virtuous".
The employee at Twitter stealing private personal information flew to Saudi Arabia once he got the tip the FBI was onto him, and sent a resignation through email.


tldr2; fuck Twitter.

This would probably be a good example of when to use a VPN.
Also: Ditching the United States to live in Saudi Arabia? What a downgrade. Have fun looking at sand and water.

Just because a place is wealthy does not mean it is an interesting place to live. What do they have? Fancy expensive apartments and major worldwide events? So what. That is basically like every big city in the world from New York to London to Sydney. Once you get past the shiny aura there isn’t much there. Once you go past a million dollars or so, things are pretty much the same.

Some people may be very interested in the Gulf region and good for them, but I would not be very interested in living there despite any financial incentives to do so. The suburbs or even farm life is where I look for happiness.

I've met quite a few ex-pats who went to live in the gulf for some reasonably lengthy period of time. Each and every one of them was a boring money-obsessed asshole. I doubt it's a coincidence.

Twitter says 'employee' i say 'government plant'

and i bet there's plenty more where that came from. We already see how twitter shills for the left in America, i wonder where else they do it
