I think the Venn Diagram of free speech absolutists and competent developers is a lot smaller than Elon and most people realize.
Twitter has never been nor propertied itself to be a bastion of free speech, so I always find this pearl-clutching at "meddling in X" funny. It's a private company, it can do as it please.
