By limiting the amount of data that can be collected from Twitter, Musk is limiting the government’s ability to control and censor Twitter discussions. From Dr. Joseph Mercola at theburningplatform.com:
Story at-a-glance
- On July 1, 2023, Elon Musk announced new limits to the number of Twitter posts users could view in a day
- While much pushback has ensued from users, this move is actually a major win for your privacy and online freedom
- Musk stated the view limits were applied “to address extreme levels of data scraping & system manipulation”
- The lack of viewing limits on Twitter allowed censorship entities to scrape massive numbers of tweets so they could quickly and comprehensively control public conversations online
- The limits cut off intelligence agencies’ “censorship death star” — AI — at the knees
July 1, 2023, Elon Musk announced new limits to the number of Twitter posts users could view in a day. The number varied by user, with verified accounts initially able to read 6,000 posts a day, unverified accounts 600 posts a day and new unverified accounts 300 per day.1
The number has fluctuated since, increasing to 10,000, 1,000 and 500, respectively,2 but the sentiment is the same. Gone are the days where unlimited post viewing was possible — at least temporarily. While much pushback has ensued from users, there’s a reason why this move is actually a major win for your privacy and online freedom. It’s stopped mega censorship operatives in their tracks.
I thought it was X?
Does the band X with Exene Cervenka know about this?
Zuckerborg cried about the little bit of free speech on the bird?
Meta is CPUSA (D) owned but who knows if it will fortify das democracy in 2024.
Gab dumps on them all and free speech shouldn’t be feared or swept under the rug.
RFK II is right about censorship leading to 1984 society.
