No matter where you stand, I think it's good that this is happening. The CA law might be overreaching whilst Twitter might be too lax. Hopefully a head-to-head brings clarity on an important topic.

With the CA law, EU regulation, app store policies and the like, a pretty powerful net is cast around the topic of speech. Specifically about speech that is technically legal yet considered unwelcome.

It's tempting to let judgement be clouded by a hate for Musk, but it's a topic worthy to think about more deeply beyond just X.

It's also revealing how this legislation only targets Big Tech. From a pragmatic point of view, this makes total sense. But it also shows that this legislation isn't based on first principles. It's a panicky patch on an open wound, not the definitive say on free speech.
