[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 1105040, member: 56232"] Unbridled free speech will be the death of Twitter. Funny enough, people don't like being in an environment where others can say horrible crap without consequence. Generally those who see nothing wrong with spewing hatred all the time are those who do it. Also even in the USA, free speech is not unlimited. I think they will find a lot of the nasties making death threats etc who then face legal consequences for their actions, but think somehow saying it on Twitter be real life will protect them. Musk will either realise this and not go down this path for long or he could kill the platform and lose billions. There is a reason these far right "free speech" platforms all failed. He's also claimed he wants to remove the bots. Surely free speech includes the ability to make a bot say things? It could be a convenient cover to purge the platform of legitimate profiles. [/QUOTE]
