German anti-racism body leaves X over ‘rise in hate speech’::A German agency that tackles discrimination and racism says it is quitting the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. It cited a rise in hate speech since owner Elon Musk took over last year.
I’m amazed that the EU or Germany still haven’t blocked Twitter for that matter.
Only a matter of time…
That would be concerning. What would stop them from banning something like a US mastodon server?
No, it’s not concerning that they can block it heavily fine a website that does not follow their hate speech laws. We do have severe laws against hate speech in Europe because we suffered the consequences of not reigning that in in the past.
