Top comment.

P.S. @Aktungbby the subduction zone is what you should worry about

Musk changed his mind again, now he's looking for his successor Willy Wonka style by hiding golden tickets in just five new Teslas.

But much more is at stake than reining in errant opinion or disciplining a supposedly renegade capitalist like Musk. Big Digital companies like Twitter have assumed oversight and control functions formerly accorded governments. These functions have been delegated to such corporate assets as Twitter, Facebook, Google, YouTube, and others, thus deputizing them as state agents while augmenting the power and penetration of the state. These governmental functions include shaping the political field itself.1
Twitter has operated as a political-state apparatus—a propaganda, censorship, and (dis)information agent for the state, the state defined by Henry Hazlitt as “the clique in power.” Allowing one of these major assets to fall into the “wrong” hands jeopardizes those functions and casts new doubt on the regime’s ability to squash dissent and control the population.

Musk counters EU censorship: all requests to delete posts will be published

Twitter owner Elon Musk is backing full transparency in Brussels' planned controversial censorship measures. Musk wants to publish on Twitter all EU-wide requests to delete accounts or posts for "false news."

On the social network these days, Twitter and Tesla owner Elon Musk (51) is being praised to the skies. He has done more for freedom of expression since taking over Twitter in the fall of last year than many a politician has done during an entire political career.

The reason for the current praise for Musk is his announcement that he will publish all applications related to the EU's new censorship rules. Among other things, this may even include the deletion of posts or even accounts if they fall into the category of "disinformation" or false news," eXXpress reported.

The background: in the future, the EU wants to deploy disinformation experts worldwide to put a stop to the spread of "fake news." Brussels suspects Russia and China in particular of churning out fake news to disinform the Western public.

Good move, they will hate him for that. If you are in doubt, just remember how manipulative and mandacious the state media reported and still report about Covid.
