Musk joins the tyrants -- and anyone working with him does the same
I've been on the Internet literally since before there was an Internet
per se (that is, on the original DOD ARPANET that become the
Internet). I've been thinking about Musk's actions over the last few
days. I cannot think of any instance of any Internet-related firm ever
attempting a broad *** censorship of their users' *** ability to post
freely available, legal information, including discussion and links to
such information, except ... that in so doing, Musk joins the ranks of
Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, and other countries that criminalize
all manner of information as part of their repressive regimes.
Musk has now bound himself to them and their philosophies, and any
advertisers, firms, or other organizations doing business with him in
any way, regarding any of his companies, will be doing the same by
association going forward. -L
