[DISGUSTING - Reeks of desperation by both] #Google partners with Musk's Hate Speech Platform #Twitter/X for ad services - DISGUSTING. With this move, Google will be directly participating in promotions to help Musk disseminate hate speech, disinformation, and worse. Disgraceful beyond measure. This reeks of desperation on the part of both firms. - searchengineland.com/x-twitter

That's not what's happening here.

Partnering with a public social media platform to show ads is not directly participating directly in disseminating hate speech.

@volkris Of course it is. Ad sales are crucial to Musk being able to keep Twitter running, and hate speech is an integral part of Twitter that Musk refuses to control, even in violation of explicit EU regulations. By integrating Google ad systems to ease purchasing of Twitter ads, Google is directly helping to fund Musk's continued dissemination of hate speech. Q.E.D.

@lauren

Hate speech is an integral part of Twitter?

You're saying the social media platform would just collapse without hate speech?

That's clearly wrong.

Also, I don't care about whatever ridiculous pronouncements the EU makes. They can deal with their own screwy system.
