Veteran tech journalist Walt Mossberg announced on Tuesday he was deactivating his X (formerly known as Twitter) account, saying Elon Musk’s takeover of the site turned it into a “cesspool.”

Mr Mossberg is a well-respected name and expert in the US tech writing industry, who also co-founded media sites such as Recode and AllThingsD. He announced his boycotting of X on Meta’s new platform Threads, saying his reasons revolve around business tycoon Mr Musk’s threats to sue the Anti-Defemation League (ADL).

    Let’s see all the people who complain about Twitter and Musk and post it ON TWITTER.

    If even 1/2 these clowns that claim to hate him and what he’s done simply deleted their accounts, the entire site would collapse. Instead they literally prop-up that toxic site by continuing to use it. Fucken hypocrites.
