Become? He’s been that way since almost, if not the very first day he took over Twitter. He started banning people very quickly despite calling himself a “free speech absolutist” and Twitter the “digital town square.”
And I wouldn’t be shocked if there were things in his other companies he doesn’t allow people to say.

He did it already before Twitter was a huge thing to him.
He did it with Tesla customers who were unhappy, to the degree where one who was particularly open on social media experienced that his car suddenly couldn’t drive, because Tesla disabled it.
He has also threatened to sue media outlets for bad press.

It’s also a double standard he holds, as he doesn’t shy away from calling a rescuer a pedophile because he criticized Musk.
So it’s OK when he does it, but others cannot, not even when they are right.
