Twitter is threatening legal action against the Center for Countering Digital Hate, a nonprofit that researches hate speech and content moderation on social media platforms.
The letter from Twitter’s lawyers alleges that CCDH’s research publications are intended to ‘harm Twitter’s business by driving advertisers away from the platform with incendiary claims.’
This is a pretty bold move from Twitter, especially considering that CCDH is a well-respected organization that has been doing this kind of research for years. And it’s especially ironic coming from Elon Musk, who has said that he’s a ‘free speech absolutist.’
But Musk has also shown that he’s sensitive to criticism, so it’s not surprising that he’s taking this kind of action against CCDH
I think Elon’s rebranding from “twitter” to “X, The Social Media Platform Formerly Known As Twitter” was really smart. You know what, I am gonna go XTSMPFKAST-eet that right now! Obviously the branding was the weakest part of the product he bought!
And I’m glad he can’t destroy “twitter” anymore
There’s always tomorrow, I’m sure he’ll manage to fully sink it…
It’s like he’s trying to sink it but idk, It’s either not intentional and he’s a dumb cunt, or it’s completely intentional and he’s still a dumb cunt.
I don’t understand the theory that he is trying to destroy twitter. What purpose would that serve? Some people say “Oh the Saudis Could have paid him to do it” why not just simply close the site?
