When Elon Musk wanted to buy Twitter, he called himself an 'free speech absolutist'. Today we see what he meant. When he can't bear criticism from users, he just yells: 'off with their heads'.

But Musk forgets that we are not in the Habsburg monarchy, but in a better or worse democracy, and money is not everything. In today's edition of DGP Magazine, prepared in collaboration with The Economist, I write about what we should learn from his behavior (no paywall!)

Interesting fact for EU citizens who use Twitter! You can't be banned over the new policy. At least for 30 days.

"Under UE law, a service provider needs to inform consumers "reasonably in advance" if there are modifications in the digital content that negatively impact the consumer's access of the service”. Details: https://twitter.com/CatalinaGoanta/status/1604556862862532616
