Twitter’s response to a request for comment regarding its Boulder offices was an automatic email with a poop emoji. Twitter CEO Elon Musk tweeted in May that this is the new auto-response for press inquiries.
I can't believe this is real, what an absolute clown show.
That is...childish and unprofessional to say the least.
This is why they are getting fined for more than the company is worth in Germany, they also responded to the German Data Protection Authority's inquiries with poop emojis.
I'm gonna need more popcorn for this.
Because he, the Saudi princes, and the Qatar government didn’t overpay for twitter to be a successful business, but to buy influence and control information.
Have they paid for any of their offices?
Valid question that can be expanded even further. Has Elon paid for... anything?! Last I heard, Google is still waiting on their payment for their cloud services. 😂
Wonder how much of them not just killing the servers is to avoid a monopoly lawsuit/perception.
I'd assume if they (Twitter) were a normal non-social advertising company they'd just cut them off and be done. Granted it's hard to know how long they haven't paid, but my guess is basically since Elon took over.
Apparently the contract is up at the end of the month. So google is meeting there end of the deal even if twitter is not meeting theirs.
Heh, if I'm Google I'm just calling it. They have nothing to lose, a single Twitter team is a drop in the bucket for them.
If you're bored and looking for something (un)interesting to read - you can see some of the legal filings surrounding the lawsuit for non-payment of rent on their SF headquarters on this website.
I'm assuming you couldn't get around the paywall, so here you go:
In May, Twitter’s landlord filed a complaint against its tenant Twitter, alleging that the company is behind on rent payments. The landlord is Lot 2 SBO LLC, affiliated with The John Buck Company, a Chicago-based real estate firm.
The complaint alleges that Twitter set up a letter of credit for $968,000 that the landlord could draw upon if the company failed to pay its rent, and the lease agreement said Twitter must replenish that letter of credit within 10 days if that were to happen.
The landlord used the letter of credit toward the unpaid rent this March, according to the complaint, but Twitter failed to restore the letter of credit within 10 days, as outlined in its lease.
Basically yes, non-payment of rent.
I don't think they've even paid any bills.
If I just broke contracts left and right, my credit rating would be ruined and I'd struggle to get any more financing. Yet this guy continues to leave a longer trail of financial wreckage behind him with few consequences. Our financial system is broken
The ~~social~~ credit rating system is just for poor Americans. Most people in the world don't have a credit rating, and neither do rich Americans or big companies.

Wow!
As you can see, Twitter is now firmly in Act II: 'Finding Out'
Waiting for him to declare Squatters Rights.
" I...Declare.....SQUATTERS RIGHTS!!!!!!!"
How much does this dude have to do before everyone sues the pants off of him? We should be past that stage months ago.
If you’re going to link to an article that’s behind a paywall, please warn us.
Respectfully dude, it's not everyone else's job to police content for you. Paywalls are everywhere, it's the internet.
This is hilarious. Fuck musk
archive.org link to get around paywall.
Elon's next tweet: "Squatters Rights! Very Interesting!! We are looking into it!!"
So everyone has to return to office, but they didn't pay the bills for said office? This sounds about right for today's Twitter. What an awful place to work now.
I'm curious how Twitter is still running. How can the servers stay up as the support structure rots around them...
Get out! (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻
This is fricken hilarious 😂😂😂😂
Lol
