Elon, Twitter, and Free Speech

In this video, I discuss Elon taking Twitter private, and its implications for free speech.

While Elon will be a big improvement over the way that Twitter is currently run, there is still the risk that Musk bans his personal enemies or forces KYC on all Twitter users.

A better solution is to move towards a completely decentralized online chat program with no human censors or control. Sphinx Chat and BlueSky are two possibilities here.

Education and teaching people the skills of critical thinking are a better approach to misinformation than censorship or limiting free speech.

Not investment advice! Consult a financial advisor.
