Regarding the Twitter Space meeting, it continued briefly after he left, then it was shut down.

Still whinging I see,

I did not see any of your condemnation when conservatives were being banned, left, right and centre, for nothing. Not nice is it?

Elon said in that space, that circumventing a ban on public information, to his whereabouts, & posting a link to said information, is still circumventing his rule on doxxing, he doesn’t want that information on Twitter, very reasonable request, it’s like here, if I was to ban any specific site from being posted, someone posted a tinyurl to the banned site, to hide the fact you’re circumventing my ruling and I would react accordingly.

Elon said one of the journalists posted a link to his address, that is not ok.

No, a lot of them just reported and used the tag of the then-deleted elon plane account. They did not post the location of the plane.

And also for a free speech advocate 'trolling him' is a pathetic reason to ban them.





Ok fine, ban them because they're left-wing reporters. But then let's stop this free speech nonsense or the outrage that the New York Post people got suspended.

The last few years have had so much drama about Twitter being a town square or whatever it was, people calling for congress to look into moderation decisions, that such a powerful social network shouldn't be moderated at the whims of Twitter's owners and then as soon as Elon Musk bans users those same people defend it. Such phoney outrage. It was never about free speech concerns, it was always just yet another chapter for very online people to bash each other within the neverending culture war. Who cares that Twitter banned some idiot before and who cares who Musk bans now.
Free speech doesn’t give the right to post personal and private details of individuals.
