Musk comically overpaid for Twitter and can do anything he wants with it. My (and I think most peoples) problem is the hypocrisy displayed by Musk and his sycophants. I would respect Musk a bit if he dropped the free speech charade and simply said it's his playground and he'll do whatever he wants.
I don't think YouTube has ever claimed to be a public town square or a desire for free speech absolutism.

- matwood 4y agoObviously he can’t violate the laws, but as owner of a private company he has a very wide berth with what he can do. Not linking to a competitor is not violating anti-trust here.
- guerrilla 4y ago> Not linking to a competitor is not violating anti-trust here. Of course it is and regulators will come down that way as it's even more blatant anti-competitive behavior than many other cases in the past.
- danaris 4y agoI mean, that's the thing: He can. He just shouldn't. And he doesn't have enough people (or, most likely, anyone that he'll actually listen to) telling him what he shouldn't do.
