    He absolutely talked about the sites numbers being artificially high due to bots when he was buying it, even tried to use it to get out of the legal obligation to buy it.

    We’ve also seen his gutting of the moderation system cause a huge influx of bots and bot interactions, not to mention other stuff that advertisers don’t want their ads to be next to.

    Like he really has played him self and is having a temper tantrum at having to face the consequences of his own actions.

      Maybe he should have done something we call “due diligence” instead of explicitly signing a waiver for that responsibility.
