  Wasn’t it one of Musk’s stated reasons for buying twitter to prevent exactly this?

  • flop_leash_973@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    To be fair the only reason he actually went through with buying Twitter was because he was forced to.

    Yup. When a right-wing government asks, he complies. When a left-wing government does, he sues.

    Yea but he wouldn’t just lie right? It’s after 2014 so his cars drive themselves and actually pay their owners money now right?

  Heil Trump. I wish him that he gets what he deserves.

  Compare arab spring where Egypt shut down its internet and Twitter did everything it could to ensure messages got through…

  To bowing down to authoritarian bullshit and locking down dissenting and potentially dissenting accounts.

  You know, from the free speech absolutist.

    Yeah some time ago I used to respect these companies I remember when Google condemned the Egyptian government’s actions in 2011 and one of the very popular activists in the revolution was the head of marketing in Google MENA. But now the truth has never been more obvious to me. Individuals may or may not care but corporations will never care.

  It’s because of stuff like this that we need to shamelessly promote the Fediverse.

• Sibshops@lemm.ee ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

  This is why people need to move to the fediverse. To stop the government from shutting down people’s accounts.
