The U.S. government owning half a social media company. Nothing could possibly go wrong.

It already has de-facto control of two (redacted) social media sites and a media network.

I remember when we had three networks. Will we now have just one?

Is this also Perplexity looking for an off ramp and acknowledging it’s unlikely to succeed in its current state?

I’m honestly not sure its value anymore. I almost never use it and should probably stop paying for it.

It's really interesting (or disquieting, depending on your point of view) to think about possible synergies between these two business models.
