Twitter filed a lawsuit against the Center for Countering Digital Hate. “Despite our continued progress, the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) and its backers have been actively working to assert false and misleading claims encouraging advertisers to pause investment on the platform. X is a free public service funded largely by advertisers. Through the CCDH’s scare campaign and its ongoing pressure on brands to prevent the public’s access to free expression, the CCDH is actively working to prevent public dialogue,” the company said in a blog post Monday.
“Musk and his legal team, led by attorney Alex Spiro at Quinn Emanuel, have engaged in an aggressive campaign to intimidate, bully, and silence CCDH,” the organization said in a statement released Monday. “While Elon Musk proclaims to be a ‘free speech absolutist,’ his actions against CCDH show the lengths he will go to silence those who seek to hold him to account.”
To moderators: if the mega thread style doesn’t work, could we consider splitting out Musk-news to some other community? The topics comes rapidly and gain a lot of interest, but it’s such a narrow perspective on technology and just drowns other news.
EnoughMuskSpam is a thing on lemmy.world.
why join a community with musk in the name
Duh. To make sure you are getting just the right amount of Musk in your life! /s
Why would people who want to talk about Twitter/X even go to a community created by people who want to see less of it? We consider this Technology news.
The name is a way of acknowledging that people are tired of hearing about him. It’s (I think; I didn’t create it) saying, for those who want to read about this asshat but without spamming other channels, not no one cares about this.
I am also tired of him but what can I do if he keeps doing newsworthy bulshit? I’m not going to go to a community just about him, because I’m not that personally invested in him, but I also don’t think talking about current relevant events involving him is “spam”, particularly when it comes to Twitter.
At least on Reddit I used RES filters to block all posts with certain people in the subjects. Cuts down on a lot of low-effort gossip from people hate-posting news.
Thank you for the terms. Couldn’t find them anywhere. Made it hard to fit my comments in with communities not realizing this was the meta.
Yes please. This needs to be addressed.
