It's strange to hear a CEO speaking about his own company's decisions almost as if he was an outside observer. This feels like an attempt to disperse accountability and blur the lines around their own decision.
It's even strange to hear a CEO use this opportunity to promote his Bitcoin investments:
> “The reason I have so much passion for #Bitcoin...
It’s not a Supreme Court ruling, it can be rescinded more easily than that — the language suggests a ban that cannot ever be undone, is that good?
Is the Twitter UI itself conducive to healthy discourse?
I contend that healthy discourse cannot happen with a UI that is designed for knee-jerk reactivity.
If a platform becomes a standard means of engagement for elected officials, ought we not more seriously consider the ramifications of clamping on free speech?
Most companies present a unified front and CEOs don't usually sound equivocal or self-critical. Maybe it's just a PR move but it seems different than what you normally see.
