The latest bit of shrieking coming as a consequence of Elon Musk's Twitter takeover comes from General Motors, which is going to stop advertising on Twitter for the time being:

General Motors is suspending its advertising on Twitter following Elon Musk's takeover of the social media platform, the company told CNBC on Friday.

The Detroit automaker, a rival to Musk-led electric vehicle maker Tesla, said it is "pausing" advertising as it evaluates Twitter's new direction. It will continue to use the platform to interact with customers but not pay for advertising, GM added.

"We are engaging with Twitter to understand the direction of the platform under their new ownership. As is normal course of business with a significant change in a media platform, we have temporarily paused our paid advertising. Our customer care interactions on Twitter will continue," the company said in an emailed statement.

Soft as butter in sunshine.

I know how loyal you GM people are. But this is stupid and GM as a company has no backbone.
