Elon Musk Calls Out Pro-Censorship BBC for Misinformation
During an impromptu and newsmaking interview streamed on Twitter Spaces, Elon Musk challenged a BBC reporter to come examples of hate speech on the social media platform.
The debate over online content access promises get even more intense as the 2020 election gets closer and closer. Setting aside fringe actors, it often seems to come down to legitimate free speech vs. Orwellian censorship.
When it comes to exploring alternative or holistic health practices, consumers should engage in extensive due diligence guided by a qualified healthcare professional. Health is an intensely personal matter. But what happens if the online platforms prevent that due diligence?
Earlier this week, National Basketball Association superstar LeBron James announced that he would have no further comment on the NBA-China controversy, which was prompted by a now-deleted, pro-Hong Kong democracy tweet from Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey. This was a probably a good idea, because James’ initial response clanged off the backboard, or whatever roundball cliche applies.
Last year, Harvard historian Niall Ferguson made an interesting prediction. According to Ferguson, “Silicon Valley is never going to let 2016 happen again.” He was talking about the presidential election victory by Donald Trump. The latest in a series of exposes by James O’Keefe and the Project Veritas crew seems to validate that prediction.
A Pinterest software engineer who leaked information to Project Veritas about behind-the-scenes censorship found himself escorted out of the building by security with no explanation.
Search giant Google has apparently terminated the employment of software engineer Mike Wacker. Last month, the self-described Republican published an open letter about the “outrage mobs” that evidently run the show within the company. The only political views acceptable within Google are left or far left; expressing a dissenting view prompts complaints to HR., Wacker claimed. Wacker even hinted that going public could result in his firing.
In an open letter posted at Medium, a self-described Republican who works at Google warned about the ideological turmoil and rampant bias in the supposedly nonpartisan Big Tech firm.
Last year, Harvard historian Niall Ferguson predicted that “Silicon Valley is never going to let 2016 happen again.” He was referring to Donald Trump’s social-media-enabled surprise victory — at least to the political establishment and pollsters — over Hillary Clinton in the presidential election. Parenthetically, a similar unexpected result has apparently just played out in the Australian national elections.
