Why is Elon Musk attacking Wikipedia? Because its very existence offends him | Zoe Williams

www.theguardian.com

The X owner has no time for a democratic experiment dedicated to knowledge. He would rather yell puerile ‘jokes’ into the ether, writes Zoe Williams

Now is a good time to flood Wikipedia with donations. For the first time in my life, i have just donated to them and will do so again. You can do it too for a minimum of €2, no requirement for recurring donations or any nonsense.

      I think purchasing a public company and promising a donation are two different things.
