https://apnews.com/article/australia-x-stabbing-church-esafety-commission-d19fa3736cc348043f0979945dd0dea3 An Australian judge on Monday ruled that social media platform X must block every user in the world from accessing video of a bishop being stabbed in a Sydney church, extending the prohibition beyond users in Australia. And apparently this isn't the first time something like this happened? Here I was, about to give Elon Musk credit for something, too https://new.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1caai47/australian_judge_bans_x_from_sharing_video_of/ Twitter has already done this for India back in 2023 Not sure if that comment is true, having trouble finding news articles to validate it. But assuming it is... Curious that Twitter "bent the knee" to India, but is fighting back against Australia. I don't like the precedent of allowing countries to police what the entire world can post or view on the internet, and saying "geo-blocking isn't enough" is appalling. ... Copied to Clipboard!

They're welcome to ask.
Musk is free to decline. They can then ban the site. It's basically just a high stakes game of chicken. --- I apologize for nothing! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Cartoon_Quoter posted... They're welcome to ask. It says they're going to fine them $785K per day they don't comply. Which is pretty ludicrous, twitter loses money overall already, it definitely isn't making money in Australia. So then I guess what? He geoblocks the entire country for all of twitter, and they can't do shit to collect their penalties? Or would some sort of trade deal between the US and Australia come into play and twitter's still pressured into paying? Rotterdammerung posted...

Good job, Australia.Whenever it comes to disputes over censorship or general prudishness, as a pretty universal rule, Australia is always the bad guy or greater evil. Like, them being the ones (most) in the wrong on such matters any time their country is involved is possibly the safest bet on earth. ... Copied to Clipboard!
