How though, Twitter has had week(s) to prepare this post and its so bare.

If you're Eli Lily, why would you re-advertise on twitter. Nothings changed from when you stopped!

Not only would I not buy ads, i'd rethinking even having a corporate presence considering the lack of protections against fraud.

Looking forward to a verified @RealEliLilleyCEO account appearing 5 minutes after Twitter Blue 2.0 3.0 comes out, which only allows you to trivially impersonate people, after which Musk will completely independently invent Verification 2.0 3.0 which will either just be the old system again or a separate Twitter Blue badge. Visionary genius at work.

Oh I agree, this post won't change anything at this point. But I guess that's why it was released (and as others noted, also for regulators / to save face after weeks of chaos).
