Continuing to censor opposition on Twitter. Erdogan also helped secure an exchange of prisoners of war between Ukraine and Russia, in addition to hosting some liberated Ukrainian POWS in Turkey, and providing Kyiv with arms. Still his close ties with Putin have made his Western allies nervous. Didnt read anything about musk in that article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He helped broker a key agreement known as the Black Sea Grain Corridor Initiative that unlocked millions of tons of wheat caught up in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, averting a global hunger crisis.

"We have been blocked in various places around the world at different times, we have never given in to censorship and we never will," he told me on the BBC's tech podcast Tech Life. "If governments around the world believe that in order to get political advantage they can control what their political opponents are saying online or prevent them from speaking online, then they will try that." He said Twitter's actions would put pressure on other websites to comply with future demands. "I think people in the industry should really stand up and vigorously say no - actually an open internet, a free internet, the free sharing of ideas and knowledge is really crucially important," he added.

I saw the commentary on what the guy who isn’t ceo for Twitter said Twitter should do. I don’t have a strong opinion because I recognize Musk has been an overarching force for good in the world(I say that as I compete directly against him in a space he’s made a lot harder to compete in) but you think the best decision was be blocked completely as opposed to comply in interim and challenge in court? The right choice and why isn’t obvious to me 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
