In the same time EU voted the Digital Services Act, barring missinformation, hate speech, even products sales scam.
Companies can get fined by up 6% of their global turnover. Wich can be huge... So Twitter will not change to some alternative reality of the alt-right any time soon.


The EU descends into open fascist tyranny against their own citizens. Of course the only entity deciding what is "misinformation" is Europe are central governments.

Sickening.

Why is the ACLU so afraid that Elon Musk will bring free speech back to the platform?

What gives, ACLU? gee, it's almost like you lost your original purpose and became corrupted in the name of leftist censorship.


they're worried that unchecked free speech is problematic, and they're right, it can be very problematic. it can be a great thing, and it can be a serious hurdle for humankind to jump over. free speech absolutism can lead to opensourced projects for mankind or the Salem Witch Trials.

Elon isn't an idiot to make Twitter an alt right media refuge. He is just going to take away far left's ability to exclusively cancel everything they don't like. Most of the time, powerful people buy media outlets to put themselves in a better light and to promote their agenda/products. I think Musk is going the power route.

Some examples from the witch hunt:

Losing your job and all of your livelihood just for expressing your opinion is a bit too much, don't you think?

This is not related with twitter; #1 has a working twitter account. Not checked others.
There's not even 1 time the word "twitter" in your article (which is from a right wing think tank btw)
