There is simply no originalist basis at all for saying the government must force Apple to put the Twitter app in the App Store.

It's a good thing that Elon Musk isn't "big tech" then, isn't it.
This argument is kinda dead in 2022. The vast majority of people are viewing content just like this on their phone in vertical formats. If Elon was filming a show for Netflix, then yeah this format would be an issue.

You called Elon mature? Are you paying $8 fee?
Nah bruh. I don’t even use Twitter except for my business account and I didn’t pay for the checkmark when it was an option.
Good job assuming stuff though, bruh.

What i find hilarious is how many people here were calling Elon far right and a fascist the last couple days. And now he is at Apple HQ on a personal tour with Tim.
Kinda proves he isn’t that, doesn’t it? Tim obviously knows he isn’t.

Weird turn. I certainly wasn't making that argument, just making sure we have a clear baseline for what the 1st actually means. I wouldn't be surprised if some kind of argument was made with what the EU has been able to bring into question. It is 2022, anything is possible these days. 🤣
Tim should have taken Musk on a tour of the roof and pushed him over.
I second this. They’re both rational people and not only enjoy what they’re doing but they’re also good at what they’re doing. It’s a good and smart move that they’ve met today. Come together and make a deal. Great stuff!
Before your get your tongue all dirty from Musk's boots, Tesla has a Chinese gigafactory.
Would not be surprised if he just showed up the front desk and demanded to see Tim.

In all seriousness, I hope to God you are right. But the way Elon Musk has been acting lately, it's scary. Maybe today he was on his best behavior at Apple Park.
Impossible. Everyone knows Tim Cook doesn't have a shadow.

Agreed! 100% maybe Elon Musk showed up anonymously, an uninvited guest. That's why he's being super thankful.
Front Desk called Tim Cook...Someone is here to meet you. Oh, who is it?
Front Desk to Elon: Sir, Do you have an appointment?
Front Desk is on the line with Mr. Cook, he replied: Who is it?
This guy from Twitter looks like a familiar face... Tim Cook replied... Oh, him... yeah, let him in I guess. *sigh*
Hopefully, he didn't show up with a sink.

I gotta hand it to you. This is an incredibly balanced and even news report.
I wish all news related stories were reported this way.

He was forced to fly in with 3-hour's notice with paper printouts of his 10 most relevant snippets of code in hand.
Some of y'all need to step out of the echo chambers for a few days, that can not be good for your health. It is 100% okay to be skeptical, we should all be, but at least give them a chance lol.
hmm where's that copypasta i have about people not knowing what the first amendment is actually about…
I can NOT believe that the tech car of the future doesn’t have CarPlay in it.
I’d be so bothered if I had a Tesla
Crim Crook needed to stop Elon drumming up enough support that he'd get too much negative attention on Apple.
