Gregory's Server@nande Censoring bad people is still censorying. You can argue it is justified and moral to do, but you cant say it "isnt censorship".

 @nande Because he is ok with some censorship and not others... not sure your point. @freemo you can't have criminals spreading misinformation and attempting coups in broad daylight. That is not okay and it doesn't serve the public interest. @freemo I wasn't referring to you personally or trying to sound aggressive. I mean the Supreme Court ruling was due to Musk disobeying a just order to ban accounts related to Brazil's attempted coup last year - which makes it much less about censorship and much more grounded than abusive orders from foreign governments that he had no problem implementing. @nande All good, all im saying is technically its still about censorship. Brazils govt wanted something censored, musk didnt want it censored. Im mot saying musk was in the right, or that brazil was. Just saying it was fubdementally still about censorship. @freemo sure, but - also technically -the whole of Twitter wasn't blocked because of those unbanned accounts. It was because, after that, Musk closed its offices here and refused to name a legal representative in the country. I do think that Musk provoked this situation so he could fire some people and still pose as a hero. @nande I wouldnt doubt for a second he is playing some sort of game. Either he wants attention and free advertising or wants to save some money. |
@freemo Musk didn't have any problems with blocking these other guys. I wonder why.
