Does this take into account that Twitter’s new CEO has resumed paying Google? I can see that maybe the tumult could have caused a lapse in the contract until a new arrangement is finalized, but that’s just speculation.

Yes, I meant that Google holds true power over Twitter, like any hosting company will. Billions be damned.
