X has received executive orders from the Indian government requiring X to block over 8,000 accounts in India, subject to potential penalties including significant fines and imprisonment of the company’s local employees. The orders include demands to block access in India to accounts belonging to international news organizations and prominent X users.
…
X is exploring all possible legal avenues available to the company. Unlike users located in India, X is restricted by Indian law in its ability to bring legal challenges against these executive orders. However, we encourage all users who are impacted by these blocking orders to seek appropriate relief from the courts.

Why do you go straight to anti-Musk conspiracy theories? This has been X's - and Elon Musks - position from the start. It's the very reason why he bought Twitter in the first place - to stop the erosion of free speech on social media.

Oh yay, more disingenuous clickbait. The full quote was this:
Musk defended his decision,
So the choice was either do what they ordered or take the whole site down for the whole country….. and you think he made the wrong choice?
I swear no one on Lemmy can read past a headline, and they instantly believe it if it suits their agenda.
