I'm sure there's probably some kind of government regulation that could fine him or something for that.
Got a tip for us?

Elon Musk Claims Apple Has 'Mostly Stopped' Offering Ads on Twitter and Is Making Moderation Demands

I dunno - I never had a Twitter account, so I really have no idea what takes place there (other than I miss out on an opportunity to add an entry to MacRumours giveaways, and apparently they gave an important account back to some guy in Florida). That said, nobody here is picking up on Musk saying he'll make his own phone? The possibility for humorous names and taglines seems abundant:
* Muskphone - "It doesn't stink!"
* T-phone - "The 'esla for the restofya"
* TwitPhone - "Free speech comes with a price!"
Call me crazy, but in over a decade here, I've never seen the rest of the content in a conversation thread like this do anything else but devolve.

I’m generally not rude or condescending, but I’m honestly tired of the cesspool where swimming in.
Your statement of the “goal” makes no sense. This is why the gold standard definition of freedom of speech is the US First Amendment. Where the government has very little power to determine valid speech because the act of censorship will always result in speech being suppressed. The government is forced to endure all speech, valid and invalid, as it is powerless to determine its validity.
To say that some censorship is required, but “not from a view that differs from mine” is nonsensical. What’s considered “porn” is very much something that differs across political and ideological spectrums. The same for violence and anything else…
In the pre-Internet world we had reasonable ways to limit the damage to those who sit in the back of the class. Sadly, we have yet to find a way to build those guardrails in tech and until we do we’ll lose a lot drowning in the ocean.
Musk fan bois are come defending him saying that is fake or that isn't what he meant. 😂 Using their own words really tosses salt on the wound.
They don't actually care about children. This is a performative action to avoid real debate or critical thinking (on their part) because a nuanced response allows them to declare that you are a pedo or at a minimum pedo-sympathizer.
You must be missing the headlines because celebs are commenting on Balenciaga.
The people lost their s*** over that one and he hasn't even used the account. Hilarious.
Are you conflating the first amendment right to free speech with being allowed to make that speech wherever you want without consequence? If you come into my house and say racist or transphobic things, I'm perfectly within my rights to tell you to leave. That doesn't mean I'm taking away your first amendment rights. Try again. Hopefully with a better example. Come on, with the kind of claim you made you should have at least half a dozen examples to pull out of your back pocket. Instead all I'm seeing from you is persecution complex.

I'd be interested in how you learned what Apple knew and did about this? Is this hearsay or is information that has been confirmed?
Hive mind. They all have the same exact thoughts on everything, it is scary.
Functionally, it works just the same as it always did. But let‘s make arguments about politics and grumble a lot.
Sure- when CNN lied about trump dumping fish food into Pond. Calling him insensitive
Trump feeds fish, winds up pouring entire box
President Donald Trump took a moment out of his whirlwind Japanese trip to connect with nature and feed some fish, but after a few delicate scoops, he resorted to a grand gesture met with some laughter.
Btw- Abe actually dumped food first- Trump actually followed.
CNN only modified story after unedited video showed Abe did first
Amen
Pretty sure almost nobody likes what Belenciaga did, my guy, but sure keep making it up as you go.
What's changed as far as this issue? App Store rules have always required moderation of user-generated content.
App Review Guidelines - Apple Developer
The App Review Guidelines provide guidance and examples across a range of development topics, including user interface design, functionality, content, and the use of specific technologies. These guidelines are designed to help you prepare your apps for the approval process.developer.apple.com
Apple cares to enforce that rule when it comes to conservative voices otherwise Apple would have banned Twitter from the App store for the Taliban and many others who are on the site. Perhaps that's yet another reason to remove the Berlin wall Apple has errected around the app store.

If this is the best example... ok.
I would agree they made a mistake. CNN modified the story, which is good.
What would you like to happen?
He isn't going to make a phone, he was trolling people.
And yes, he is a genius clearly since he is a self made billionaire.
