Bluesky blocked his account in turkey btw, just like X did. Bluesky have made no mention of challenging the legal request in court like X have though.
Iirc the Brazil situation was the first time anything like this had happened since Musk bought Twitter. They definitely didn’t handle it correctly, but they’ve clearly learned since then. Now they comply with legal requests and challenge them through the courts. Would you prefer they just folded every time and didn’t challenge, like all the others? Like Bluesky?
Good work on calling me a nazi though! I did nazi that coming!!
The fact that Bluesky didn't post about it doesn't mean they did not challenge.
Also, a file on Google Drive is not a petition submitted. There is nowhere a letter signed or stamped as received.
You know you can pay a law firm for drafting a letter and then not send it, right?
There are too many conclusions you are coming to without knowing the actual facts.
I judge what happened for sure.
And for sure both of them complied, officially asked to or not, to obscuring a political prisoner's account (and dozens of other activists as well, by the way).
Also, regarding X, this is old news, from the end of March.
Also, are you X? Like, the platform, its personification? Because if you are not, then I didn't call you a nazi. You can go clean your snot from your neckbeard.
So your position is that X aren’t challenging the censorship request in court?
That’s one hill to die on I guess.
The X post is from the other day, not March.
My position is that there is no way to assert it really did.
The ban of his account were present in Italian news since March: https://www.lapresse.it/esteri/2025/03/22/turchia-x-di-elon-musk-sospende-account-dellopposizione/
This is old news.
X responding to it with this statement is not old news. It literally happened the other day.
