Twitter

As the secrets of Twitter unfold the threat to free speech is exposed. Government agencies like the FBI, CIA and Homeland Security sent request to Twitter and other social media sites to censor certain information deemed to be dangerous to national security. It was never referred to as censorship but by the euphemistic phrase, content moderation request. No one is sure how long this had been going on and if it were not for the fact that Musk bought Twitter no one would still be aware. The press has already taken political sides and this would have been one more step to controlling the news. Social media companies had become echo chambers of left wing ideology much like universities. When you only hear one side of an issue you slowly drift away from the truth. It is important for citizens to hear all sides of an issue.
