Data is the ultimate Fact Check. This is a President that's adamantly opposed to fact checking [1] and has even coerced Facebook to drop fact checking. Of course they don't want data on government sites that disprove their "alternate facts".

Going out on a bit of a limb here, but I’m guessing the data will find their way to xAI.

My hypothesis is Musk is following a South African playbook. That involves, in part, privatising the commons.

Hope to be proven wrong.
