~1 Billion views. That's kind of an indicator of the unbalance of the polls.
The interview started ~45 minutes late, because of a large and coordinated DDOS attack upon the X servers. There was a coordinated attack, that feared what Elon and Trump may talk about, an Leftist idea that is so fragile and weak, that not having control of an opponent's conversation, was a threat.
The ~1 Billion views thing from Elon was a weird bit of math. The Space recording after the fact says "26.4M tuned in". That's about what I saw around half-way through before I had to help put the kids to bed. Elon then muddied the waters a bit commingling the stats posted by the @X account:
So, the 4 million posts that simply mentioned Elon or PDJT during that time span had a collective total of 998 million views
Many of those millions were then relaying the live stream. I watched The Benny Show and they used the feed and rebroadcast it. They had 1.2 Million alone
Sure, I had a rumble link going at one point when Spaces wasn't working, but Elon and X can't track those views. His boast just made the whole thing ridiculous. 1/8th of the world did not tune in listen to the Space.
Context is everything.
A view may be 1 person, or a family watching, or a bar full of people. If I comment on it, after having watched it - that's 2 views. If my wife replies to 6 people commenting on the interview - that's 7 interactions, or views. If we access the interview, and skip through it for key parts - that's yet another view. It's not the same as 1/8th of the world population. It's a metric as to how many times the same content was addressed.
There were not ~1 billion views. Musk was combining views with mentions and people discussing it, however the XTwitter algo computes. Much of that could have been detractors / folks talking down on it as well. It may have been a speculative figure. Musk is known to pull numbers out of a hat. 20 hours ago he said there were probably 200M views. Elsewhere I saw < 100M views. Sure there are more since then, but it isn't going to come close to 1B. 1 out of every 9 people on the PLANET cared enough to listen?
Just saying, facts matter, numbers matter.
