Elon Musk’s social media platform X sued Minnesota on Wednesday over a state law that bans people from using AI-generated “deepfakes” to influence an election, which the company said violated protections of free speech.
The law replaces social media platforms’ judgment about the content with the judgment of the state and threatens criminal liability if the platforms get it wrong, according to the lawsuit that was filed in Minnesota federal court.
“This system will inevitably result in the censorship of wide swaths of valuable political speech and commentary,” X said in its complaint. Musk has described himself as a free speech absolutist and he did away with Twitter’s content moderation policy when he bought the company in 2022 and renamed it X.
Ah, yes, X. The platform that reduces your visibility if you criticize Musk.
Or if you turn down his requests to breed with you:

Hello, i am a deranged oblong. Can I procreate with you? I know video games and rockets?

It is not a violation of your speech rights, this is defending you from enemy propaganda!
P.S. I’m disenchanted in people for a very long time already so I clearly state that the previous sentence was sarcasm.
