Yes, compliance was mandatory. They eventually turned over the access and records but prolonging that earned them the fine.

Thank you. We learn everyday

Yes. He should have immediately complied instead of delaying or resisting.

However, he did not comply immediately, and he got fined for it. OP should have posted the full news.

Thank you.

Okay, that amount is insignificant to him. So paying the fine shouldn't be an issue to him. The main issue here is, will the US government be able to extract whatever information they need from his platform?
They just need to find something no matter how miniscule and watch them play him!

Yes they will and yes they have already gotten what they need through clandestine and other under handed ways before making the former request, in fact that is why they know what to ask for specifically.

The only issue they had is that of admissibility in a court of law, hence they are not coming through the front door to ‘officially’ ask.

This US government is gradually becoming a nuisance to everyone and everything around them, and it's high time they are cut down to size.

Shut down Twitter in the US and he will give you anything you want

Do you know the uproar that will happen if such is done? Government over there cannot just deny them of such. You think it is Nigeria where government will do as they like and people will make or use memes and skits to take attention away from what they should stand up against?

Elon doesn't care about your opinion, he cares about his. He is autocratic in nature, he decides what he wants and not what people feel it is right. He's a bizman with so much liver, he's damn rich and has money power...


You are very right! He has an ego, and same ego is what’s killing his business!

Why he had to buy an overpriced Twitter and still struggling. Same ego tanked Tesla. It’s all a matter of time before he ruins his business with ego.

Same gonads him go political, and no real buisnessman takes sides in politics. They are always underdogs on both sides. It’s just a matter before they will catch up with him. I believe you know how US politics go.

Donald Trump is sweating it out now!

The level of witch-hunt by Biden and democrats against President Trump is unbelievable. They should know that power is transient. They are making every effort to stop Trump from contesting 2024 election. It will backfire against them because if Trump wins, they will all face the consequences.

This is why I love business over politics.

Trump had been everyone's darling even when he was grabbing them by their womanliness, till he chose to go into politics.

Same would happen to Dangote the day he dares ventures to test the political waters.

They'll see to it he's drowned in it.

You have little or no knowledge of data sharing. Your email is linked to a phone number, Yet you use the same email to register on a site and then decide that you're safe simply because you did not submit your phone number to the site, meanwhile you verified your phone number with the email service providers.




You play too much. Just don't play rough enough to attract some negative or investigative eyes.

Your English comprehension teacher deserves flogging, since you are the one that doesn't understand English.

This is one of the reasons why I love the fact that Canada and USA requires IELTS test for citizens of Nigeria for immigration and university admissions purposes.

He eventually released the document but was fined for delaying to release it.
You need to learn to read beyond headlines. He objected to the non-disclosure order and not the request to release the records. He released the record in due time but was incomplete. I hope you get the difference because people like you hardly do.

I thought you nonsensical argument was "take sides"?

Now you have swiftly changed it to "front stage"?

Na you dey carry and move goal post for Adamasingba stadium?

Cut this foolishness and raise up your hand that you were chatting nonsense.

You have a problem with English language. You were quick to mention “takes sides” and failed to mention where I stated “underdogs”

And you haven’t mention anyone from your list who is politically lousy and ego filled like Elon Musk

Bloomberg went into politics, and was he lousy like Elon?
