Hasnain says:

“Musk framed his takeover of Twitter last year as being a win for free speech, and he pledged to only moderate speech on the platform if it went outside the bounds of the law. His actions since then have been a series of backslides. For example, he banned accounts using public information to track his and other powerful peoples' flights after saying he would never do so, in order to preserve freedom of speech.

Musk once called himself a "free speech absolutist" and said that "some governments" were demanding that satellite internet company Starlink block Russian news sources, but that it would not unless "at gunpoint."”
