Elon Musk's 'blundering stupidity' is 'flushing Twitter down the sink': major tech news site

A commentary published on top tech news website TechCrunch takes Twitter CEO Elon Musk to task for doing seemingly everything in his power to make the social networking site worse.

The piece's author, Natasha Lomas, marvels at the way that Musk has made Twitter less user-friendly while at the same time implementing changes that are sure to drive away more users, such as taking away verified accounts from people unless they pay him a monthly $8 fee.

"It almost doesn’t matter if this is deliberate sabotage by Musk or the blundering stupidity of a clueless idiot," she writes. "The upshot is the same: Twitter is dying."

Lomas predicts that charging users monthly fees for verified accounts will be Musk's "next — perhaps final — stage of destruction" of the company he bought last year for more than $40 billion
