I archived that thread just in case: https://archive.is/tgpV9


I assume the freedom of speech absolutists that Twitter is famous for are working feverishly to counteract Dotcom's efforts.


An interesting topic from the point of view of Mr. Musk trying to position Twitter as a "freedom of speech" platform.

Mr. Kallioniemi has had a long thread of threads in Twitter higlighting parties spreading pro-Kremlin propaganda. When he discussed Kim Dotcom, the latter decided engage in the activities presented in the tweet chain. Interesting from many points of view, including freedom of speech. How free will Twitter be if flush propagandists resort to court to shut down discussion on political matters? Direct reference to Catherine Belton's court case in London over her book "Putins people" comes to mind as well: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/dec/22/roman-abramovi...
