Or: The Straw That Broke This Camel’s Back
Elon Musk changed Twitter bio links to Mastadon to http instead of https – or blocked them.
He is a free speech absolutist free marketeer who doesn’t believe in free speech he doesn’t like, nor does he believe in free market competition.
Effectively he changed users’ profiles to make it look like they are scammers.
An insane way to treat users, aside from the many other, probably more important, reasons to quit Twitter.
Anyway, I’ve deleted my Twitter account now.
I know there are reasons to keep your account live, but, if you’re a journalist, I ask you especially to consider ceasing to post on Twitter and only use it for passive research, out of solidarity with your colleagues on The New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, Voice of America and other outlets who had their accounts suspended by Elon Musk for reporting on him.
- Your DMs are not secure and may be used against you, just as he has used internal private messages against people
- Your account could be suspended at any time and you won’t be told why
- Posting on Twitter is providing free content on a toxic platform whose owner is using it to suppress journalism and spread disinformation, for example about COVID
