An emotional meeting.

Following news of Ms Gadde’s emotional moment, the Tesla chief targetted the Twitter lawyer over censoring“Suspending the Twitter account of a major news organisation for publishing a truthful story was obviously incredibly inappropriate,” Mr Musk said, referring to the lawyer’s move in the run-up to the 2020 US presidential elections.

While Twitter has sought to be a platform where hate speech and harmful content are censored, Mr Musk suggested the platform should only remove content if it is required by law. “By ‘free speech’, I simply mean that which matches the law. I am against censorship that goes far beyond the law. If people want less free speech, they will ask government to pass laws to that effect. Therefore, going beyond the law is contrary to the will of the people,” the billionaire tweeted on Wednesday.

Commentary: Elon Musk wants free speech but may make Twitter's disinformation problems worseElon Musk has bought Twitter with a vision of a social media platform free of content moderation issues, but the changes on his mind raise concern given Twitter's unique role in online conversations, says this professor. How much does Anjana knows bout Twtr’s current algorithms? And how much about Elon’s thoughts and plan? Arguments without adequate knowledge lack backing from detailed study / research.
