Everyone is up in arms because he's gone from 'free speech absolutist' to 'free for me but not for thee' in about a month.

And in the 3 minute call where he popped onto a Twitter space tonight, he now says doxxing is zero tolerance and journalists aren't above the rules. But the alleged "doxxing" was the journalist doing nothing more than linking to the @elonjet account. @elonjet can be found on Mastodon at https://mastodon.social/@elonjet Incredibly, links to Mastodon instances are now flagged as a safety risk on Twitter.

"Doxxing, stalking, trying to hurt people's loved ones, threatening them, it's not OK in any situation. People on here who want to constantly stoke these politicized outrage campaigns want to dismiss it, but it shouldn't be dismissed. Has very real consequences." @taylorlorenz

It's also worth noting that revealing real names and workplaces of anonymous accounts is still allowed. The doxxing that is banned is a specific class of doxxing that isn't often considered to be doxxing.

But he already made a location carve-out too: he himself posted pictures of the alleged stalker guy and a license tag. That would get someone banned under the location rule. Even if it was a day later, the incident itself happened a day later than any elonjet post I believe, so that's within his real-time timeframe.

The people who cheered Musk for his "pro free speech" attitude don't actually believe or want free speech. They want free speech for themselves and censorship for people they don't like. See the terrorist attacks against Drag Queens.
How many journalists who didn't dox Musk's plane have been censored and suspended?
