Elon Musk’s acquisition of Twitter (X) has expanded free speech online, unsettling those reliant on narrative control. In the UK, this shift clashes with stringent speech regulations and extensive monitoring. American Democrats worry that conservatives and populists, including Trump (reinstated in 2022), gain amplified voices that disrupt established discourse. The Anti-Defamation League fears diminished censorship will curb their capacity to shape opinions.
