Brazil asked Elon to ban 7 fascist accounts spreading disinformation
Elon refused pretending it was a free speech issue even though he complied multiple times with similar requests from right wing govts
Gotta say, this is new information to me. I’ve briefly looked at the stories and the banning of twitter, but I never realized this was entirely because Elon wouldn’t ban accounts as he does for right wing government.
Old twitter complied with 51% of legal requests, Elon’s twitter is at 71%. Old twitter complied with 53% of government take down requests, Elon’s is at 76%.
Old twitter also used to post a high detailed transparency report every 6 months. This one from Elon’s twitter is light on detail, and the first in 2+ years.
So he’s a lying liar and even his own data proves it.

Elon seems like a kinda shitty guy.
Hot take!
I mean it genuinely is because of the “kinda” and “seems”
“Elon is a shitty guy” is one of the coldest takes out there at this point
He censors way more than old twitter, and is way less transparent about it.
