Musk’s pettiness knows no bounds.

Masnick’s perspectives on free speech are always helpful.

So. so gross.

As usual, I find Masnick’s recap of this recent nonsense helpful in terms of summary and interpretation.

Is this the same feature Elon says will be sufficient for keeping Alex Jones in check?

Good observations by Masnick here.

The digital could have been used to expand access to content, but we’re using it to actually restrict that access. What a crappy future.

Masnick’s frustration here is fun to read.

I’ve been waiting for Masnick’s response to this, and it’s good.

I bristle a bit at Moody’s suggestion that academics are dumb for signing over copyright—it’s dumb that we have to, but there are systemic issues at play here. Yet, especially now with tenure taken care of, I do wonder if we consent too readily to the system.

What a wild story.

I’ll admit that I’ve been wary of Masnick’s hostility to KOSA, but Blackburn’s comments justify his stance. This ought to kill support for KOSA.

I’ve instinctively never liked t.co links, and this demonstrates what the problem with them are.

This is dumb. Copyright is important, but this example shows how much we’ve made it overreach.

Yet another wild story in the wild history of Twitter.

USA! USA! Seriously, though, bookmarking for future teaching.

I appreciate Masnick’s thinking, and I’m a big Doctorow fan, so it’s always neat to see them come together.

Helpful summary by Masnick; bookmarking for later.

I’ve linkblogged a lot of stuff on Reddit lately, but this is a good summary and reaction, so I’m adding it to the list.

Lots of ugh here.

Here’s Masnick saying some of my thoughts but better—and adding some observations I would not have come to on my own.

This is… I don’t know what this is. Besides a whole bunch of nonsense.

Masnick makes a good point here. I’m sympathetic to “for the kids” motivations, but I’m increasingly convinced that Masnick is right, that it’s meant to make bad policy sound impossible to argue against.

Bellingcat does good work; Twitter continues to be a joke.

I know I can always count on Masnick to write this article when a story like this comes up.
