    Are people still touring the "ultimate free speech" narrative, or have we moved on to the next talking point?

    Whatever you think of Musk or where your political leanings are, this move is so anti-democratic and a clear abuse of power by means of this social network, that it should now be painfully clear to any legitimate company, government or institution that still has an account there, that it is time to move to alternative social media channels entirely. If there was any shred left in the first place, X now lost all its credibility and reputation. Move away, people.

    ...Following legal orders from Turkish judges. Just like it does in the US and EU.

    Do we like it when people defy court orders or not today? I cant keep track.
