    So I have a really really dumb question:

    As the owner of Twitter, who probably has access to the database directly, couldn’t he just get a database dump of his kids tweets?

    Or have a developer, oh I’m sorry, chatGPT develop an app just for him to be able to view all tweets?

    This seems like firing a nuke for something akin to a knife wound.

      He wouldn’t even need to do that. He could literally just make a third account (assuming his daughter is blocking the one where Elon pretends to be an actual child) and see all the posts he wants. This is truly Elon solving a problem only Elon has, by nuking a feature tons of folks use.

      You can just make a new account… it’s not like blocking someone stopped them from ever viewing your tweets again. Blocking was always just to stop viewing their tweets.
