Original Note:
This is factually incorrect. Prior to Musk's acquisition the FBI paid Twitter for complying with records requests related to legal matters – not for censoring or suppressing content. Twitter may receive requests to remove content, but is never forced to comply. https://www.factcheck.org/2023/02/fbi-reimbursed-twitter-for-providing-user-information/ https://restofworld.org/2023/elon-musk-twitter-government-orders/
