Elon Musk’s effort to buy Twitter has many wondering how the social platform’s approach to speech and moderation would change if he were successful. One topic that could present a conundrum is China.
Like many companies that do business in the country, Musk tends to refrain from criticizing Beijing’s policies, even though he slams similar moves by the US government. Nowhere is the difference more stark than when it comes to covid restrictions.
