terrible problem with it actually.

Now there would be the question of people who pay the higher price to have no advertisements. So I would hope if I'm being prevented from interacting with anybody because of advertising, if that's happening, I don't know that that's happening, but if it's happening, as long as it's only limited to people who see ads, that's not so bad, right? So if you paid to not see ads, shouldn't you have full access to my provocative material? I would say yes. So because it's one of those half subscription and partly wild advertising-based, I wouldn't have the biggest problem in the world if they throttled me on the advertiser part of their business.

All right, let's check in on Threads. You know, Meta has this competitive product. Apparently Mark Zuckerberg posted on it yesterday, which is big news because he hasn't posted on his own product in three weeks.

It's interesting why some things interest you and others don't. But I'm pretty sure that I don't like Threads because there's no provocation on it. It was just too ordinary. There's just nothing there.

All right. Tesla gave for free the technical guides to the new 48-volt technology. Gave it to their competitors. So Tesla gave probably one of their most key important new technologies. It's some upgraded way to handle their electricity in their vehicles. 48-volt technology. I guess most of it had been 12-volt, but they're going to 48-volt for some kind of major advantages. So they actually gave the technology for free to Ford and other companies that make electric cars.

Now put on your business hat. Smart or not smart to give away this proprietary advanced technology to your competitors? Smart. Yeah. Now this only makes sense because they have such a dominant position. If you have a dominant position and you're pretty
