to the US now where Elon Musk has had an
0:02
interview with Donald Trump on his
0:05
platform X this was literally a live
0:08
phone conversation that everybody in the
0:11
world got to listen into but it was a
0:14
bit late going to air on X because they
0:18
had a massive Cyber attack against their
0:21
servers someone didn't want this
0:24
conversation going live here's Elon Musk
0:26
explaining at the very beginning of the
0:28
call why it was a bit late sorry
0:31
guys we unfortunately had a massive uh
0:35
distributed denial of service attack
0:37
against U our servers and uh saturated
0:41
all of our all of our uh data lines as
0:44
as this uh this massive attack
0:46
illustrates uh there's a lot of
0:49
opposition to people just hearing um
0:52
what uh president Trump has to
0:54
say the combined views and subsequent
0:58
conversations following that phone
1:00
conversation that everyone could listen
1:02
into already has over 1 billion
1:06
Impressions on X far reaching reach that
1:11
obviously someone didn't want these guys
1:14
to have here's a reporter prior to this
1:17
conversation asking the White House
1:19
Press Secretary this conversation's
1:21
going to take place we're worried about
1:23
misinformation disinformation by two of
1:26
the most powerful men on
1:28
Earth what are you guys going to do
1:30
about it are you going to go are you
1:32
going to do anything about this Elon
1:35
Musk is slated to interview Donald Trump
1:37
tomorrow tonight um on on X uh I don't
1:40
know if the president is going to tune
1:42
in feel free to say if he is or not um
1:44
but I I think that um misinformation on
1:49
Twitter is not just a campaign issue
1:51
it's a you know it's an America issue uh
1:54
what role does the white house uh or the
1:57
president have in sort of stopping that
2:00
or stopping the spread of that or um
2:03
sort of inter intervening in that
2:05
European commissioner Terry Brittain
2:07
literally took to X prior to the
2:10
conversation to warn everyone he said
2:12
with great audience comes greater
2:15
responsibility as there is a risk of
2:17
amplification of potentially harmful
2:20
content in connection with events with
2:22
major audience around the world I sent
2:25
this letter to Elon Musk and there was
2:28
this letter the side of a Gutenberg
2:30
Bible expressing his concerns over what
2:34
may or may not be discussed during this
2:37
conversation Elon Musk quickly treated
2:40
this meme from Tropic Thunder he said
2:43
this is what I really wanted to say back
2:50
Breton you can read that for yourself so
2:54
Elon Musk obviously is is not taking any
2:57
of this nonsense and thank goodness
3:00
these conversations are taking place
