Surely a site that banned ElonJet can't with a straight face be called a beacon of free speech?
(Edit: I would be very interested in an attempt to justify that based on free speech principles though.)
- bdangubic 2y agoX is absolutely everything except anything freedom of speech related! too funny!
- Ferret7446 2y agoDoxxing is a crime, which is not protected by free speech. No, just because the data is public does not justify aggregating it and presenting it to the public. Pretty much everyone's address is public information. (or at least, it should be a crime. Its exact legislative status is murky and much weaker than it should be in the US, but it is almost universally banned by online services, for good reason.)
- Vinnl 2y agoThen what has changed to make X more of a beacon of free speech than Twitter was?
- Levitz 2y agoI see no speech there, there are no ideas being censored. It's just stalking.
- Vinnl 2y agoWho gets to decide that? I feel like the point could be made that its ban limits the spread of the idea that some people emit disproportionately more CO2 than the average person.
