Never read him to know what the deal is.

I think a lot of these types have decided that feeding bs to conservatives is easier than doing actual work.

How about the 1st Amendment ?

You mean the one that reads "Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press ...

The people running Twitter were exercising their first amendment rights.  Their critics were exercising theirs.  Musk is exercising his. Musk's critics are exercising theirs. It seems as if the process is working.

My bigger concerns are:

1.  insurance companies out there engaging in deceptive advertising to sell Medicare advantage. As a subset, deceptive advertising in general.

2. Politicians running for office spreading disinformation under the pretext of free political speech. Rather than censorship, I would limit the time for campaigns.

MAGA seems to be obsessed with Hunter Biden dick pics.

Whatever it is about, the 1st Amendment is not it.

Big guy may have been some Chinese businessman?

Didn't this failed business venture  supposedly take place  while Biden was out of office?

Did Twitter prevent NY Post from running their story?

Unless there is a government order forcing them not to publish, still isn't.  If there is a request,  as happens with lamestream media all the time, it isn't implicated.

Wasn't this about Hunter's laptop? Trump was in office, so how was "the government" involved? The DNC, Biden campaign, and Biden himself (he was out of office), were not "the government."

I really don't get how Twitter is thought to be a big deal. How many people are actually on it? It is all circular at this point.
I shut my account down 2 weeks ago. Feel a lot cleaner.

Wasn't this about Hunter's laptop? Trump was in office, so how was "the government" involved? The DNC, Biden campaign, and Biden himself (he was out of office), were not "the government."
Twitter had weekly meetings with federal law enforcement agencies and Yoel Roth stated "these meetings that there were rumors that a hack-and-leak operation would involve Hunter
Biden. "
The FBI did go to Facebook.
Federal law enforcement agencies suppressed the laptop internally before Oct 2020. The FBI had the laptop since fall of 2019. Yet in Oct 2020 the federal law enforcement agencies are telling Twitter about rumours of a "hack and leak" regarding Hunter Biden.

"Trump was in office, so how was "the government" involved?"
The government ran a Russia hoax disinformation campaign while Trump was in office.
