Remember when the Internet was nearly unified in believing that governments shouldn't regulate it, or at least not much?
What happened that I am now reading here a stream of comments that say that Musk is wrong and defend the Australian government? 🙁🤮😡
That was a different internet. In that unregulated internet there was no moron with unlimited money trying to ruin everything.
Somehow I am managing to completely ignore the existence of ex-Twitter as well as any decisions made there. What is being ruined?
Then it's weird that you're defending him.
If the Australian government is going to regulate ex-Twitter, it's going to be writing a law that applies to all websites (or maybe: all websites above a certain size), including here on the fediverse; not just to ex-Twitter.
The internet is regulated in every country. Several countries have demanded information be removed from that site, and he complies. He only doesn't like to comply when its about things he disagrees with.
