Adam Bienkov"Free speech absolutist" Elon Musk has now banned Mastodon from Twitter and is declaring any link to here as "unsafe"
JuanPabloDeWes@adambienkov hoping it backfires spectacularly, it motivated me to set-up my account on here 😊
Anthony Draper@adambienkov I think it’s clear he is a megalomaniac!
randrewbuchan@adambienkov He’s also banning journalists who haven’t been entirely complementary! So much for free speech.
Björn Heile@randrewbuchan @adambienkov His touchiness must surely be #Musk's downfall. Somewhat who is so easy to provoke you just want to poke further!
KyoshiHikari@randrewbuchan @adambienkov Elon Musk is for free speech but banns anything so wired what^^
@randrewbuchan @adambienkov Elon Musk for free speech, NOT ^^
The Burden Of Sound@adambienkov yep not able to send a link to a friend
Neil Mullens@adambienkov Elon Musk is unsafe for democracy…
@3DayMonk @adambienkov bullied at school in Pretoria now he's intent on bullying the world
Openroomxyz@3DayMonk @adambienkov Why? He likes money?
Stripymoggie@adambienkov Is the Mastodon to Twitter cross-poster still working?
Сер Пітер Лорд@adambienkov Yup, my "join Mastodon" link is similarly flagged.
Jonathan B ✈️🪄👨🏻💻@adambienkov tried to update my twitter bio to change to a Mastodon link rather than just my @username which it interprets as email… nope, malware apparently! 🤦🏻♂️
Robin Capper@jmb @adambienkov Seems they haven't clamped down on user handles yet. Have my @ Mastodon handle in that and my abandoned (made private) account is still intact.
BeeCycling has moved@adambienkov
He's running scared, whatever he says.

John L@adambienkov to be fair links to here are unsafe, for his profits... 😂
Andy D.@Jlfphoto @adambienkov although the person who has done most damage to his profits is him. Delightful irony.
Gezellig Kletsen@adambienkov Musk is such a twat
Steady State Manchester@adambienkov
It's true. We just tweeted a link to our recent toot for our #DegrowthAndStrategy book review and it vanished.

Kosch@adambienkov Well, in his defense, we are a pretty scary lot. 😆
KeithSNewman@adambienkov he's also automatically banning anyone who says a nasty swear about him. Free speech absolutist my arse.
Holdfast@adambienkov
In the USA, their political right has some major misunderstandings of "free" and "free speech".I suppose that is, at least partially, because they do not have any left-of-centre politics or political parties.
If you saw a duck with only one wing, you would not be surprised if it could not fly. That's them!

Phil Haigh@adambienkov classic “no, not that kind of free speech” vibes here. Not a surprise either, sadly.

Jarjan (He/Him)@adambienkov Of course any attempt to lure people away from Twatter is malicious! 😄
Baron Vonskinnback@adambienkov but on the plus side at least comedy is legal now...😂
Victor Jalencas 
ig88@adambienkov As if banning it wasn't going to backfire and drive interest enough they labelled it 'unsafe'
Don't go there kids.. it's not safe.

Patricia Howell@adambienkov But it's the other way around that is unsafe, isn't it?
@adambienkov bypass it by any shortener 😅 Elon Musk fear is to lose his Communit but its too late ^^
Peter@adambienkov So, is there any thought that it’s not mastodon that’s unsafe but rather Elon Musk himself……no wonder he couch surfs…… I do hope his children have more stable influences in their lives…..
Ozfrog@adambienkov
I think this is called “death throes”.
Twitter was hemorrhaging $ when he forked out $44B.
He keeps bleeding Tesla to keep it solvant.
Tesla tanking, advertisers fleeing, booed for 10 minutes solid.
This doesn’t sound like a viable business plan.

abstract@adambienkov elon musk: free speech for everyone except people who don’t like my corporate platform!
Damien Gallagher@adambienkov If all of Twitter's advertising from his competitors in the automobile industry hasn't already been wiped out, then this will do the trick.
@adambienkov totally normal and not unhinged behaviour from them 🙄
Gail Hughes@adambienkov seen that when I tried finding #GeorgeTakei link
aglimpseoflondon@adambienkov goodness I thought he believed in free speech. Turns out he only believed in anything that he likes. This is not going to end well
Roxpip@adambienkov
It was inevitable that big money would come after Twitter. It is perceived to be a threat to their continued efficient exploitation of people and resources to increase their wealth.

PeterD 🇩🇪 🇨🇦@adambienkov Yup - happened to me. grrrrr
Shelby Wynne@adambienkov Somebody feels threatened I see...... 🤭
