Sure but that’s not the point. Phony Stark acquired Twitter because he had concerns about erosion of free speech on the platform, and yet he is doing (and has done) more to erode free speech on the platform in the last month than has happened in the prior decade.
Rather ironic for a self-professed “free speech absolutist”.
He's allowed to be ironic. Before he bought it nobody seemed to care about "free speech" on Twitter. Journalists and sitting presidents were banned and people cheered. Why the sudden concern now? Just because people you like are getting banned?
I've been consistent. I support a private company's right to do business with whoever they want, and not with anybody they don't. It doesn't change just because they ban people I agree with.
Of course he is, just like he doesn’t have to worry about the First Amendment. But again that’s not the point. I can only explain this to you; I can’t understand it for you.
It’s because these journalists wrote articles that were critical of Musk. Not to mention that the publications where these articles were published have vastly stronger rules about things like doxxing than Twitter ever did (in part because they’re actually regulated).
Didn't Twitter cite the California law against doxxing (verbatim), and then only publications which violated that have been suspended?
Based on that, it would seem removing the doxxed info and not publishing it in the future would be an easy way to get their accounts reinstated. Or they can just keep yelling into the wind on Mastodon.
It's so hard to have sympathy when the irony of the situation is so fucking thick.
It’s not doxxing because aircraft locations are a matter of public record. A newspaper or other publication publishing information that’s already public is not a net new disclosure.
