I highly disagree with that. Limits on free speech has always the goal consolidate power or having the prerogative of interpretation. Musk is an exception here and it isn't even clear how serious he means it. He will comply with laws and maybe do a snarky tweet. How terrible... Maybe he forces users to identify themselves and milk them dry. Who knows? Maybe he becomes a ascetic and donates all his riches to the preservation of penguins.
But restricting speech is a tool of the powerful because nobody else could restrict it in the first place. I don't know how these contradictory ideas are even able to spread...
Economic regulation on the other hand is entirely different here of course...
With "open-sourcing the algorithms", does he mean actually publishing models? If so, it will be very interesting to see what happens - could this mean making it easier to find 'vulneravilities' in the models and exploit them? Kind of like this early-age internet "SEO" where you could put white text in your page's HTML with some buzzwords to make it more popular?
