Don't threaten me with a good time, UK (and EU). I'm personally of the belief that perhaps every continent, if not every country, should have its own personal internet. Means outside powers have less of a chance to meddle in the affairs of others. Also, it's up to YOU to enforce your own damn laws within your own damn borders. No one else is obligated to heed your crumbling nation's laws.
All these threats from different governments are pointless. Musk already said Twitter would follow the law of countries they operate in. After they had a discussion even that Saudi prince is no longer opposed to him owning it.
Which kinda sucks, considering he's a "free speech absolutist" not being able to talk to britbongs about their Muslim rape gangs kinda undermines what he wants.
right now in USA we're supposed to have 1st amendment free speech but private company twitter can censor, a new owner Musk can choose not to censor because that'd make more profits. They of the board censor and ban conservatives because they're woke but it's costing shareholders money, advertisers pay less with less people on it to see ads. Other countries don't have a 1st amendment so their govt censors and it'd be hard for Musk to stop that.
