Well, freedom of speech for racists got better, while freedom of speech for critics of authoritarian governments has been reduced. Since the number of people affected by censoring has been reduced, some people call that a win for freedom of speech (as Twitter contains more racists than government critics from countries like India and Turkey).
Not surprisingly, the self-proclaimed "free-speech-absolutionist" has no problem with censoring critics of himself, too, and only token resistance to offer towards demands of censorship by authoritarian governments.
