Elon is leaning on pragmatism to hide the fact that he’s just another high-profile coward. Don’t get me wrong, I think he’s a great engineer and a great businessman, but unfortunately he just can’t stop there. I guess it’s easy to be a shining knight of freedom when the people you are fighting against are weaker than you and will not touch your pocket.
That said, he has shown weakness and it is obvious that he doesn’t think Twitter is as strong as he makes it out to be. Otherwise he would have bargained with the fact that completely blocking twitter also affects the censor himself. Or… maybe he sees Erdogan as a better candidate for Twitter than the alternative?

As to whether he's also a great businessman the jury is still out on that one. He's a great salesman and a marketing genius, I'll give you that.
