Well maybe not so much….

Now banned the person who was running the account tracking his private plane… also now banning journalists who have been reporting on him as parts of their tech beats… and also banning people from using their pages to say they are also on other social sites (that last one may collide into us anti trust legislation)

So.. free speech unless it mocks or effects him… hmmmmm

He thinks he can control twitter like his businesses, he doesn’t realise you cannot control everyone. That’s a megalomaniac for you though.

Add to that sacking twitters legal staff, not paying severance pay to thousands and withholding rent due for twitters offices. He sounds like a right cunt.

Is this the Twitter that was going to collapse in days about a month ago?

Seems he threw the decision out to the masses and held a poll so they are all reinstated. Sounds very socialist to me.

(This may be a double crossing clique trap. Although I suspect being on the politics forum rules me out. Unless I'm deep undercover.)

He did repeat and reword the poll several times first though

I suspect this behaviour is more to do with the fact that he has become someone very unaccustomed to considering or being told that he might be wrong.

He may have exceptional talents in many areas, but it is hubris for him to believe that he is able to judge all things perfectly.

The Greek Gods were very unforgiving of those who challenged them.

As the markets are being with Tesla stock...

Now Musk owns Twatter it is actually coming to light that shadow-banning and mass one-sided censorship has been going on. In fairness it was pretty obvious before but now there's proof from internal emails and chat logs.

To us, its pretty obvious dangerous lobby groups are using media to make people think negatively of Musk. Perhaps to justify things that happen to him. Not one media outlet has emphasised that tracking him everywhere he goes does pose a genuine security risk to him and his family.

Are negative opinions about Musk because of what people know about him or what media tells them about him? Is the media telling you what you need to know, or what you should think?

of I understand it, the location of his jet was public knowledge. Elonjet made it easier.

What is telling is a) musk said he wasn't going to ban the account and b) it took many hours for the guys other jet accounts to be taken down.

From what I can see it wasn't doxxing. So twitter has to change its terms to justify the ban.

He seems like a bellend with an extremely fragile ego. I never paid much attention to him.

Oh what he said about the guy from Somerset who rescued the kids form the cave in Thailand was fucking horrific.

But that said, I don't think he's worthy of much thought. I don't wish him any harm. I don't use Twitter, it just seemed like a hotbed of hate and misinformation which is just getting worse.

There isn't actually any "proof" of any of what you've said.

You are choosing to interpret the information as you choose to. That's what most people do.

What "dangerous lobby groups" are trying to give Musk a bad name. To what end?

The tracking of any aircraft is in the public domain, so what's to ban?

I know a fair bit about Musk through people who have worked for and with him directly. He doesn't seem very nice.

In conjunction with his actions I've formed my own opinion.

It’s not though… any non military non governmental plane travelling in the air is public information… so unless some crazy individual on the ground has some sort of SAM hanging around it’s not really doxxing now…

It’s a bit like calling flight tracker the world’s most dangerous website!!

Face it.. he just got pissy!!

Elon has gone mental… now banning anyone who is linking their bios to “competitor” websites such as facebook, LinkedIn, instagram, truth social ect…

That is definitely against eu law… basically that is what Microsoft and google got caught doing.. and they were fined up to 20% of earnings…and I am sure it is against us anti trust law….

Apparently it wasn't genuine. Just to identify bots. I mean, who'd really vote for him to go?
