It's increasingly hard to tell if this bloke is either inherently or wilfully ignorant, but either way, he doesn't get how sensible government regulators work. Funny how he doesn't seem to get this fired up about taking down stuff the Chinese CP asks him to...
It's also astonishing that anyone would so desperately want to publish what essentially amount to uncensored, context-free snuff videos on his website that he's prepared to take on a nation-state with democratically enacted laws.
Imagine how upset he'll be when his solicitor and his expensive silk tell him that the First Amendment to the US Constitution won't do him any good in the Australian Federal Court? It'll blow what he's convinced himself is his free-speech absolutist mind 🤯
We need to rethink how we penalise people like Elmo and massive companies like the tech giants. When we decided on the fines and such, we never imagined the rate at which money concentrates into an ever-decreasing number of people/entities.
Senator Lambie is known to get fired up about things - perhaps somewhat (a lot?) more than the average punter - but good on her anyway. Time to bid good riddance to Elmo IMHO.
Oh Elmo, you may be relentless at... well... being a massive dickhead, but you have never encountered any single human more relentlessly committed to being furiously angry at stuff.
May the gods (or whatever) help anybody who is unfortunate enough to find themselves between Jacqui and a camera crew for, oh, I dunno, the next decade or so while she systematically airs her grievances against Elon Musk.
This is a good explainer about the issue the Australian government is having with Musk.
It's hardly an onerous thing they're asking him to do, but he's typically being a wanker about it anyway because he's a spoilt, irresponsible man-baby:
