Old Twitter: Would fight legal battles at great expense to avoid giving user information to authoritarian governments. (Yes, that includes the US government in some cases.)
New Twitter: Just rolls over because fighting legal battles takes money away from Elon.

Old Twitter: It was possible to get banned for sufficiently vocal anti-semitism, or some kinds of sufficiently awful hate speech. Not easy, just possible. It was fairly easy to get banned for being slightly rude to whiny conservatives.
New Twitter: You can get banned for saying anything Elon doesn't like, but it's cool, he likes anti-semitism and conspiracy theories.

Old Twitter: Had multiple staff whose full-time work was keeping CSAM off the platform and cooperating with law enforcement in pursuing cases.
New Twitter: No dedicated staff on that. They did ban one guy for posting CSAM but Elon reinstated the account because he was a right-winger and that makes it okay. They also deleted all the evidence so it would be harder to charge him with the crime.

All this bullshit about "deep state" is just dumb. Actually, it turns out, the QAnon people are grifters and fakes, and there was never anything real there.
