Do you have a list of US judicial take down requests that Twitter has flat out defied? I know that agency request actions aren't consistent, but dont know of examples telling a judges to stuff it.

Nope. But the list of court orders Musk has ignored are vast. The hypocrisy is being aimed at the man—he doesn’t get a fresh start on criminal contempt with a new LLC.

  What US court orders do you have in mind and can you articulate the hypocrisy. If I recall correctly, tesla defied some covid orders, but that is a pretty different situation.

    Musk’s actions around USAID have been halted by courts [1]. The actions persist. Meanwhile, Musk calls—as a member of the executive branch—for impeaching judges who disagree with him.

      Does that constitute Hypocrisy? I agree that the intimidation of the judiciary is detestable. However, to my understanding he is still acknowledging the power of the court to bind or compel action, or at least making the pretext of doing so. Based on this, I don't see the hypocrisy of following judicial rulings in Turkey as well. Inversely, if he was defying similar judicial rulings in each country, on similar basis, that wouldn't be hypocrisy either. The closest is probably the situation in Brazil, where twitter refused several orders, but ultimately ended up complying. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_of_Twitter_in_Brazil#Background https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blocking_of_Twitter_in_Brazil#...

        > he is still acknowledging the power of the court to bind or compel action, or at least making the pretext of doing so He claims to fight for free speech. Yet he kicks and screams with every ruling decrying his actions illegal in America. Meanwhile, while Turkey asks him to stop his free speaking, crickets. That is the hypocrisy. He doesn’t stand for free speech. He stands for himself. > closest is probably the situation in Brazil, where twitter You’re still muddling Elon with his beards. What Twitter or Tesla do on their own is almost orthogonal to our modern Caligula’s preferences when he commands them.
