Unless that’s exactly what they wanted. Keep in mind that people have used twitter to mobilize against oppression all over the world. The people in power could definitely be seen to benefit from its destruction. But it won’t matter, people will find other platforms to mobilize on if twitter doesn’t work for them.
Why couldn’t he just shut it down if he wanted to? What’s the purpose of wasting that much money slowly?

If he shut it down then the masses would flood to a handful of new options and a replacement would emerge in a week or two.
By dragging it out, it slows that down.
Also, if he shut it down, he’d get a week or two of headlines. This way he can milk a year of it.
Attention!
