The electric vehicle executive doesn't want his 'free speech to be actively managed or controlled by a competitor.'

Though he’s no longer on Twitter, Fisker Inc. is. Whether or not the Los Angeles-based carmaker maintains its account “is a company decision,” Fisker said, without elaborating. A company spokeswoman didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment on the matter.

Fisker, who once styled a BMW roadster for James Bond and led Aston Martin’s design studio, was an early design consultant for the vehicle that would eventually become Tesla’s Model S sedan. Musk didn’t like Fisker’s concept and sued him in 2008 for breach of contract, claiming the Danish entrepreneur took the project to spy on Tesla. Fisker denied the accusation.

The Ocean starts at $37,499 for the base Sport version that goes 250 miles per charge. A top-of-the-range Extreme grade gets at least 350 miles per charge, accelerates from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 3.6 seconds and will set buyers back $68,999. A second Fisker model, the PEAR, is to be built in a partnership with Foxconn in Lordstown, Ohio, starting in 2024.

And then went to instagram which is controlled by Zuckerberg. Talk about a case of 'out of the frying pan into the fire'

Twitter in negotiations with Tesla CEO Musk over bid to buy platform: reportsNegotiations apparently are on for Tesla CEO Elon Musk to buy Twitter, with The New York Times reporting the two sides are talking. THis will be a jump the shark moment. Musk has no business telling twitter what to do, he's taking the side of right wingers, which is COMPLETELY NOT the target audience of his vehicles. It's a distraction from his other roles. It makes him look insane. Bad all around.
