“What has now become clear is that Musk’s vision of speech on X is one of the greatest dangers to democracy, especially leading into the 2024 elections… I worked with a small trust and safety team at Twitter during the last election.

This article is interesting, considering Musk has repeatedly acquiesced to governments and removed content deemed as “illegal” in certain countries, approving ~83% of government requests to restrict or block content (e.g. India, Turkey).
It’s also interesting because I’m sure this author would be appalled at the existence of true free speech that exists on #nostr
