Twitter about to go offline in EU in 3.. 2..
It will be an interesting test case for sure, whether the EU is willing to take down X/Twitter/whatever if they don't comply. Or if they offer up some half-assed compliance, as per Elon Musk's signature passive aggressive style.
If the EU doesn't react forcefully to that, these regulations will be as good as dead, because why should anyone else comply if Elon gets a free pass?
It’s now X. And good
Edit: good that it's going offline...
... if you're a fan of Elon boy, white supremacy, the alt-right, homophobia, "anti woke" propaganda, or making excuses for Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Otherwise it's shite.
Clearly I meant good it's going offline.
Clearly a lot of people didn't read it that way.
But yeah, I agree with you:
TwitterX going offline in the EU would be nice.
Maybe (s)he meant good that it will be shut down in EU?
Yep, that exactly. I would actually be surprised there are a lot of people on the fediverse that actually like Twitter, but I have been surprised before.
Sure, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt, of they want to clarify....
