How would people interact with vendors and salespeople that send links to product specs, troubleshooting articles, etc?

I also wonder if auto insurance companies might refuse to insure Kia and Hyundai vehicles until this is fixed.

My point is that the recent mass layoffs have negatively affected Musk's reputation and has not had an impact on Zuckerberg's. I think your illustration of his rep having a negative aspect as far back as the movie is in line with that.

With Musk's purchase of Twitter we've seen a lot more attention on alternative platforms such as Mastodon and Bluesky (?). I don't see anything like that with Facebook, other than the old struggles of any aging hangout spot. Also, note the difference in reaction to paying for verification on Twitter Vs. Instagram. People get mocked on Twitter for having the "blue checkmark". It's just silly.

I think Blackberry was the only one that did both OK enough to take seriously. I know people loved the Sidekick, but I never used it and don't recall if people used a web browser on it, or just text messaging.

The first iPhone was more impressive than a Blackberry.

I'm still using Twitter and only seeing improvements to the platform, plus promise of upcoming improvements.

Community Notes is a big deal. Company badges are helpful. The "Show more" gate is now properly hiding SPAM instead of "wrong think". The "For you" algorithm has actually improved, too.

I'm not a fan of plastic items ending up in lakes, rivers, and oceans, but perhaps we're lucky that more of the world didn't take up plastic recycling the way that we'd hoped for.

And by "accessibility" I'm quite certain the author means "usability for people with impairments that don't allow them to use a mouse and keyboard or touch screen".
