Elon Musk has revealed that the European Commission offered X (formerly Twitter) an illegal secret deal. According to Musk, the deal entailed quietly censoring speech without informing the public in exchange for avoiding fines. Musk stated that while other platforms accepted the deal, X did not. This revelation has sparked discussions about censorship and free speech, with Musk positioning X as a defender of civil rights against what he describes as totalitarian tendencies in Europe.
