The concept of speaking freely is not exclusive to legislation. Musk specifically bought this platform because, according to himself, he saw it as an important place for human discourse and the freedom to speak your mind was being inhibited by the policies around moderation. Which is ironic because he implements policies that ban you for speaking out over arbitrary topics while the previous policies simply banned hate speech.

Musk couldn’t care less about free speech. He has implemented a policy that bans you for using the word “cisgender” while he responds to nazi propaganda with personal admiration.

Pretty much. Meanwhile other stores engage in actual behaviour that deserves an anti-trust lawsuit like buying up developer studio’s and making their games exclusive to their own platforms. Or paying devs to make games exclusive to their store temporarily. You know, things that actually screw the consumer over.

Valve has been the market leader for years and still hasn’t let the consumer down. Their business strategy comes down to offering us the best possible service. Meanwhile crappy stores like Epic Games try to lure you in with free games and timed exclusives and I still gave up on their featureless mess of a platform.

Civilians? Never heard of 'em!

It’s more than odd, it’s deception. He has been talking to his donators as if the money has been going to charities for years. He has named specific charities that haven’t received a single dime from them.

He’s already caught in a lie. Even if his unbelievable story that he, the director of the charity, was unaware the charity never did anything charitable for as long as it has existed (this already makes him guilty of failing the donators by incompetence), he still lied about knowing where the money went for all those years to the donators and CONTINUED TO DO SO AFTER HE ADMITTED HE KNEW ABOUT IT.

Now he claims that he has been looking for worthy charities for over a year while he could easily just donate the money to the charities he has been talking about for years already.

“The beatings will continue until morale improves”

As if they’ll lower the price once they’ve recouped the R&D costs ten times over.

Jokes on you, I’m into that shit.

I don’t trust some billionaire with a direct interface into my neural abilities. I know Musk had no problems using his satilites to sabotage Ukraine’s army to appease Putin.

A brain implant could be a solution for people with brain damage or born deficits that help them regain lost abilities.

I would never have one implanted as a luxury gadget though.

So eat them. We elect them, and we outnumber the elite that would oppose this.

Says who?

There’s nothing stoping us from restructuring the system such that we don’t need money/work to live a comfortable life.

You know we took a wrong turn as a society when not having to work is seen as a devastating crisis. Let the robots serve us and start enjoying life!

Yes Turkey is a controversial country to most of us in NATO. Terrible example.

Whataboutism

You don’t have to sue them. Suing a multinational company will bankrupt you. Let the data protection authority handle this.

GDPR fines can scale to a company’s yearly revenue. They can absolutely get in more trouble than it’s worth if they keep blatantly shitting on the GDPR. Keep reporting them whenever you see these violations.

There’s a really low bar for what is considered personal data. If they collect location data coupled to an “anonymous” ID, it’s still personal data, because it shows you moving to your house and place of work every day. If you can infer a person’s identity from the data, it’s personal data.

So yeah them collecting your personal e-mail address and refusing to delete it is a clear violation of the GDPR.
