@peter_slwk Not so silent: https://mastodon.online/@EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu/115865514632404837 (watch especially the video)
@NatureMC @peter_slwk @Daojoan Yackety yack. They wouldn’t even call it Child Sexual Abuse Material, they went with “spicy”. Spokespeople can take a seat until they are announcing legal action enforcing the law.

@Heartofcoyote Watch the video before yackety-yacking me (spicy mode was a quote, they forgot the " " in the post). It is a post about the work to enforce the law!
Some European countries also check for a possible ban of X. What does your country do?

Perhaps my favourite 'Musk and Free Speech' moment, the one to be shared with the class, is when he sought to legally compel advertisers to buy time on his garbage fire social media app, after it transpired that advertisers don't like their ads being associated with Nazis.
And advertising is the most banal, empty, facile form of speech, but by compelling groups to provide representation on his platform it forever showed that free speech, actually free, is not something Musk will ever support.
Which makes his supporters trying to claim CSAM as a first amendment thing... just ring a little more hollow. (Also? Ew.)

@Daojoan My much longer twenty-three: they have always been misogynists and pedophiles, and now our government has given them free rein to do whatever the hell they want.
They run the government.
I don’t call it epstein nation for nothing. He was plumbing to these people, and there are lots more of them doing exactly what he did right now. Of the files that have been released, made that clear mentioning 10 co-conspirators.

@NatureMC @peter_slwk @Daojoan Vote for fascists apparently. I just want to see laws enforced appropriately and without violence.
And to be clear, the yackety-yack was directed at the EU post not you.

Free speech is not when the world’s richest man builds a CSAM generator, hooks it up to the world’s largest public photo database, and gives 4chan a subscription service.
I’ve written thousands of words defending people’s right to be wrong on the internet.
I don’t need thousands of words for this. I have eight: what the fuck is wrong with these assholes.
@Daojoan some weird kind of ”masculinity” as strategy.
Or perhaps it’s simply sadism.

@Daojoan some thoughts on "what the fuck is wrong with these assholes."
First, to them it's abstract and personal. Free speech is for them, not you. Free speech is their right not to be affected by anything, not others. They simply don't care, and probably enjoy the controversy.
Secondly, let's be honest, when people are bang alongside a CSAM engine we know who they are and WHAT they are.

Basically the QAnoners elected the pedophile cabal they claimed to be fighting then went silent. When they weren't covering it up.

Which is why I say they pulled the trigger. They pulled the trigger on Renee Good. And they are collaborators of Jeffrey Epstein.
Found them with the accusation and make them defend themselves. There’s no point letting this slide out of ingrained politeness.

@Daojoan In an EU where policy makers scream they want to stop CSAM and so they want backdoors on phones and scanning tools to detect what you are sending in your chats, it's good to know we can always move to Twitter / X to message eachother because there's no move whatsoever to stop this.
Yes there has been a bit of news 5 days ago, but it remains silent now.
They're scared of a rich man.
@peter_slwk @Daojoan for E2E encrypted chat from a non-shit platform, Signal. For reasonably usable IM experience if your ethics are flexible, Telegram. If you're fully in favour of your own private space, Matrix. Alternatively, many people have moved to Bsky or even Threads. X in its current state should not be considered an acceptable platform to migrate to.

WRT: What the fuck is wrong with these people?
Sociopathy. The total lack of restraints only intergenerational affluence can buy.

@Daojoan I used to admire Musk for his achievements but now I pity him as he has become completely amoral, how can he justify allowing woman and kids to be undressed using AI as an attack on freedom of speech.

The funny thing about Musk's achievements is that the further you look into them with a careful eye, the less impressive they are -- from the word 'go', even. Tesla wasn't his to begin, he took it over. The Boring Company was a scam to keep public transit out of the Bay Area. SpaceX is bringing us headlong into a case of Kessler Syndrome. And the less said about Xhitter, the better.
His only undeniable achievement is convincing the world for a brief period that he's a sooper-genius.
