X Is The Biggest Source Of Fake News And Disinformation, EU Warns::The EU also called upon Google, TikTok, Microsoft and Meta to do more to tackle disinformation—much of it coming from Russia—ahead of upcoming elections on the continent.
Fine the fuckers till the fuckers ain’t fine.
Isn’t the amount of downvotes a sign of presence of US/EU bots here?
By design
Twitter has always been the platform of smooth brains. It’s not surprising it is all full of shit.
They used to moderate. Scientific discussion there was also top tier
I watched a recent clip of Musk from the Rogan podcast. He was asked if regrets buying it. He felt it was his duty in a way as it was run by extreme left wing types that banned everything from less extreme left wing through the center to the far right. Musk said they were censoring a lot of right wing views. He said when you are that far left anything including regular left is too far right for moderation.
It seems like they have abandoned most moderation now expect for the things he doesn’t like. It’s not free speech for all like they claim.
I’m fine with him moderating his social media platform the way he likes since he bought it, but don’t claim its totally free speech and then do what he has been doing. I’m not a fan of the misinformation being shared there either but I don’t expect them to be as good of a resource for open and free information anyways. There’s plenty of other places for that, which are not governed by social media reaction metrics.
I am absolutely shocked, I tell you. Shocked.
Well not that shocked
Don’t forget people discussing the virtues of Nazism openly!

Don’t you hate it when you’re trying to type and your Enter key transforms into a Fake News key?
Every X user: Yeah you tell em! Huh? Me? No I use the good parts.
noncredible take: musk is a us gov sock puppet and if x is like this then its because that allowes 3 letter agencys to lure certein ppl in security to speak so they can be tracked better.
This would be plausible if there weren’t so many examples of the FBI utterly failing to pick up on strings of red flags on social media.
u saying there isnt the all seeing eye of the 3 letter agencys on everone online?
we may be biassed cause we only hear about those who slip thru the cracks
Why should it be acceptable for them to spy on everyone if they’re not even going to successfully catch people who openly declare they will be violent, for days before the event? When people called the FBI to inform them the person might do something, the FBI responded with, “they’re already on a list”.
Yea… no. If they aren’t catching ALL of the blatantly obvious ones … fuck them. You don’t get to run the show and then shit the bed.
Then stop using it? 😅 Promote your own instance and delete every EU government account on Twitter. Cowards.
Being a threat to national security, this company should just be dissolved and its owner put in GITMO.
Just cut Russia off from the global internet at this point. Cut all the undersea and underground cables, change the passwords on the satellites, cut them off anyway you can. Yeah, it’s sad for the decent people who have to live in that hellhole, but at this point I just don’t care.
Restricting the internet based on where you happen to live can only end badly.
Their troll farms were in Lithuania and Ukraine, and I’m not sure where they are now.
If they can’t contact their troll farms, they won’t be able to give new orders.
They could always send carrier pigeons with new orders.
IPoAC was created for such an eventuality.
55% packet loss. Could be worse though.
With Russia cut off the internet, Europe and US will have to begin to be blaming themselves for everything.
Found one
You too?

If Elon Musk was German or French they wouldn’t say a single word.
I mean, he’s Danish
Am I missing a reference here or are you just slandering my country for no reason? 🤨
Well, to be fair, slandering the Danish in good fun is quite the established practice.
I agree pulling Musk into it goes too far.
Do I detect a fellow Scandinavian? If so, you’re right. In fact, I’m pretty sure it’s mandatory by law for the lesser Scandies to make fun of us and vice versa 😁
Foisting Musk on us is like bringing a dirty bomb to a bout of friendly sparring, though 😄
Nah, just a glitch in my memory
Fair enough lol
