It looks as if Twitter is going to abide by new European Union laws that limit free speech on the Internet.

It doesn’t really matter all that much to me since there isn’t free speech on Twitter. Sure, it is better than it was under the prior management regime, but there are people still banned with no explanation.
My original account was never restored and looks as if might have just been deleted by their administrators.
You also have people like Andrew Anglin, Nick Fuentes and Alex Jones banned. Jones has been banned because Musk is apparently mad at him for his Sandy Hook conspiracy views and no explanation has been offered for the Anglin and Fuentes bans.
