The account of Robert De Niro on the platform X was suspended, leading to widespread discussion and debate over free speech.
Some users believed the suspension was due to De Niro making violent threats, while others argued it was an act of censorship by Elon Musk, the platform’s owner.
There was confusion regarding whether the suspended account was De Niro’s official account or a fan account impersonating him.
This incident raised questions about the limits of free speech on the platform, with opinions split between those advocating for unrestricted speech and others who felt that certain content, like threats, should be moderated.
The debate also touched on broader issues of how free speech policies are applied and the role of platform owners in moderating content.
