The EU wants the old censorship back.
They don’t want people to realize that there could be a better way.
Yes. The DDOS attack on the interview is very telling. I have no doubt the DDOS attack was carried out by elements of the US Government Intelligence Community.

Hey! Hey! Hey! We can’t be having open discussions and the free exchange of ideas! That’s dangerous!
If I was a citizen over there I’d be p**ed at this, and would probably react in an unapproved manner.
spreading any disinformation, hatred, or incitement to violence.

Censorship pure and simple. This is no difference from what any dictatorship would do.
The problem with this type of law is that the government gets to define what each word means (and that meaning can be stretched to cover any speech the government dislikes.)
“U.K. Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer also attempted to issue a warning to Musk last week. The technology mogul was told that it was dangerous to call out two-tier policing, which Starmer claimed put officers in danger.”
“We don’t believe in Justice and we don’t want you to talk about our Tyranny” is what I hear with this. People in the UK should be very proud of this, because it returns them right back to before the Magna Carta.
I listened to the interview, doing brief skips because I was looking for the subjects covered, and I’m at work and don’t have two hours to spend on it. It was excellent! Issues, issues, issues. Elon did well. Of course he’s not a trained, smooth presenter, but he did well.
It’s an interview that the Democrats wouldn’t want people to hear.
Indeed I have asked many who talk of “disinformation” the question, who defines what disinformation is?

Aaaaight.. Start with cleaning up all the "disinformation, hatred, or incitement to violence" coming from the left and their muzzy conspirators. Then, in a few years if the rest is "cleaned up", ask DJT if he'd consider the use of more benign euphemisms to describe the commie pukes. 😉😁
Remember the American flag waving protests in Hong Kong just before COVID was unleashed. Trump speaking out may put spines in people all across the globe.
In only 10 minutes. Watch and share.
Trump is fairly moderate in a lot of his views so this reaction to him says more about them then it does about Trump.
Don’t forget Brexit.
The UK’s voters are paying for attempting to Brexit.
We’re paying for voting for Trump and MAGA.
I don’t understand why the UK doesn’t just lock-out the world Internet, like China. If you want your people in a prison, go ahead and put them there, but don’t expect me to do it for you.
“The legacy media is so focused on rebranding cackling Kamala Harris and running interference
for goofball Tim Walz that they cannot even recognize the brilliance of this pivot to X by Trump
<><>Musk’s platform isn’t working overtime to ignore, misrepresent, or drown out Trump’s message.
<><>Much to their chagrin, Trump’s X interview has blown a hole through the media propaganda wall
<><>Trump reached past them to voters that they had no idea existed.”

Trump is not what I'd call a moderate. :-)
