There's an ethical consideration when you sell a company. Dorsey and co. took a big payout and this is the result. I was thinking earlier about how this probably wouldn't have been happened if you had an even equity split across the company's employees.
I recall Dorsey publicly coming out in support of Elon's Twitter well after the sale. Maybe there was no ethical conflict for Dorsey and he likes what he sees.
Yeah, maybe all of this wouldn't have happened if the equity was split among the employees.
Showing ongoing public support is often written into the contract with these big deals; Dorsey probably has to say he supports Musk for a few years at least
