It all started when Mr Falck criticised Mr Musk’s apologetic message to Twitter users for showing them commercials. “Sorry for showing you so many irrelevant & annoying ads on Twitter,” Mr Musk tweeted. In response, Mr Falck said, “As the former lead for Ads at Twitter, I can confidently say this man has no idea wtf he’s talking about.”This exchange provoked a response from Mr Musk, who fired back with a sarcastic reply. “My apologies, you must be a genius, which is why Twitter has the worst ad relevance on Earth. Almost nobody buys anything on Twitter, but almost everyone on Instagram does. That is being fixed,” the Twitter chief wrote.
