#Mastodon: Strong legal warning from French Gendarmerie Nationale Chief Scientific Advisor - Cybercrime to #ElonMusk, in response to new #Twitter policy launched Sunday

Second thoughts about firing Twitter legal counsel Elon?

@pauljbelcher I don't think MegalomanX cares. Litigation takes a long time, and now he has the support of the whole far right ecosystem, including his far right billionaire pal Peter Thiel.
@aristeon @pauljbelcher But it's not just the French Cybercrimes division. If Twitter exercises editorial control, it becomes a publisher, not a platform. If anyone posts
about an illegal activity (lik,e say, the violent overthrow of the US government), Twitter itself would be implicated in the crime.
Multiply by all the potentially illegal content generated on Twitter, and Musk & his remaining 3 employees would have no time to do anything but respond to summonses & lawsuits.
@pauljbelcher I would like to boost this if you could add alt text!
@pauljbelcher @ericfreyss Suggested #AltText :
Screenshot of a tweet from Eric Freyssinet @ericfreyss. Text "Any attempt to remove my tweets that link to my other social media accounts, not violating any law, would actually make #twitter an editorial media, and no longer a social media platform, with civil and criminal liability for *any* illegal content therein."
