Bin Salman is Now One of Us – Part Four

Bin Salman is Now One of Us – We left our narrative about the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia right in the middle of one of the most intriguing scenes of this unfinished story, not only to add an exciting suspense to the tale but also to address a sensitive and very crucial topic that has become one of the most sensitive political, social, and civic issues in America and the world these days. This important topic interestingly ties into one of the sections of the Bin Salman story that we will narrate in the future.

With the acquisition of Twitter by Elon Musk, the richest man on earth and one of the most controversial figures in the American economy, technology, and politics over the past two years, various topics were raised, and there was a lot of protest against his consistently inappropriate behavior regarding social and political issues.

Musk had a clear stance on Twitter and social networks and seriously expressed his dislike, or rather hatred, for the liberal and rights-based intellectual approach. Specifically, Musk owes his wealth accumulation over the past two years to his extensive dirty games in the financial structure, stocks, and cryptocurrencies, and he benefited from the massive financial credit injection during Trump’s administration into the financial markets under the pretext of combating the financial dimensions of the Corona crisis.

This credit injection allowed Musk to profit from the financial credit cycle, manipulate his company’s stock prices, and at one point surpass the Amazon owner in wealth accumulation.

He made headlines with his unpopular stance on the Corona crisis and his explicit dissatisfaction with the restrictions imposed to protect citizens’ lives. At the peak of the Corona crisis, he moved his businesses to the land of conservatives to avoid paying taxes. However, all these topics should be set aside for the sake of narrating a more important issue.

Twitter has become an unsafe and now dangerous platform.

An important interview with a former senior executive of Twitter has sounded a new alarm for political and social activists and all citizens worldwide who engage on the Twitter social network. This interview took place under conditions that require explaining the process and context of the significance of his statements so that the alarm sounds for all of us. With Elon Musk’s presence on Twitter, one of the wishes of political and social extremists and groups promoting and spreading fake news has been fulfilled.

Musk was fundamentally dissatisfied with Twitter’s security and protection protocols regarding user-provided content and introduced his mission in buying Twitter as freeing it from these restrictions. His first step in destroying Twitter’s security and protection structure was firing a significant portion of the staff, especially employees of content oversight departments. By the end of the second week of November, a group of Twitter’s most important managers resigned, several of whom supervised the most critical user security aspects of this social network.

Now, Vivian Schiller’s interview has gained vital importance. This former key executive of Twitter, in a detailed discussion about Twitter’s past and future during Elon Musk’s era and its near and distant future outlook, has issued a surprising warning, primarily directed at Saudi Arabian citizens and naturally addressed to all Twitter users worldwide.

Vivian Schiller specifically warned Twitter users in Saudi Arabia that they are no longer ever safe on this global social network. Schiller reminded all Twitter users that Al-Waleed bin Talal, one of the richest in the world and now under Bin Salman’s control, is the second-largest Twitter shareholder. Consequently, due to the complete control of the structure managed by Al-Waleed bin Talal by Bin Salman’s security and political system, the Saudi Crown Prince has serious access to Twitter’s key data through his security arms and will continue to have such access. It should be noted that high-level investments in the form of billions enable such access.

Twitter is Saudi Arabia’s Playground and Musk is Under Investigation

If you recall, we narrated the story of Bin Salman’s security forces infiltrating Twitter and explained how they spied on users. The agents they hired were either arrested and sentenced or fled to Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia’s and its security system’s presence on this network is serious.

The deal for Twitter’s sale to Elon Musk has created significant sensitivity for American political and security officials. The fact that Saudi Arabia has such influence on Twitter, alongside Musk’s suspicious relations with the Chinese government and his support for Putin’s policies, even appeared in the speeches of the American president. He considered Musk’s relations with other countries a significant subject for investigation in his remarks about Elon Musk.

American senators, especially Democratic Senator Chris Murphy, who is strict with Saudi Arabia, have recently called for an investigation into the security implications and the nature of Elon Musk’s ownership of Twitter. Ultimately, new reports indicate that federal investigations into this matter are serious.

Al-Waleed bin Talal, Bin Salman, and Twitter

In the upcoming parts of our narrative about Saudi Bin Salman, we will recount the story of Al-Waleed bin Talal and the calamity that befell him. In these specific circumstances, Bin Salman and the Saudi security infiltration into Twitter is a very important issue that, beyond its news and political allure, threatens the user security of citizens worldwide.

Of course, we should be glad that these developments have drawn attention to the less-seen dimensions of Saudi and other malevolent forces’ infiltration into key social, political, and civic structures. Specifically, raising awareness about the dimensions of citizen security and the simple fact that dangerous forces can access Twitter’s key data through simple investments was less noticed by experts, and now everyone is sensitive to this issue.

It must be said that Elon Musk’s relationship with Saudi Arabia and the commercial relations between the two parties is a topic that should be addressed in a separate report, outside of our narrative about Saudi Bin Salman.
