Elon Musk Bombshell - Would Change The Internet Forever

Hey everybody, welcome to Explain America, I'm your host Carmine Sabia and we've got

a big blockbuster story today for you that really has shaken the world of social media

in fact, two of them. But before we get started, what I need you guys to do is please hit that like button

please hit the share button, please leave a comment. Those small things really help us out and believe me, with the elections approaching

we are really feeling it right now. You know how the social media algorithms are just trying to crush any kind of conservative content

The only thing that prevents that from happening is literally you guys, that's it

So those little things I ask you to do, they are so important and we appreciate each and

every one of you that does them. So Elon Musk has apparently done a complete about face

He has now, according to sources that spoke to the New York Times, agreed to purchase

Twitter, one of the world's largest social media companies, for the original purchase

price that he had set out. Now that's amazing news and it gives us a bastion of free speech in a desolate plane

if he actually does that. Now the reasoning behind it could be that they were taking him to court for deposition

Who knows what the reasoning is, but he has done a complete about face, apparently now

wants to purchase a social media platform at the agreed upon price

And I don't know if it's a wise business decision or not, but I do know that it's a great victory

for free speech if Elon Musk does what he has promised to do

At the same time, the Supreme Court has decided to take a case brought by people who say that

online radicalization led to a terrorist murder of a family member. And what that means though is much greater in scope than just one case

Of course, our heart goes out to the people who were killed, but as far as the internet

is concerned, what they're actually taking into account is section two 30

So what is section two 30 section two 30 protects social media companies from things that you

or somebody else might say online. So let's say somebody goes on social media and they threatened to hurt somebody

Well, that's a crime, right? But Facebook is protected. Twitter is protected

YouTube is protected from having liability for that person's actions. And you have to understand why that is

There's billions of people using these platforms. There's not enough moderators in the world to cover that kind of traction and make sure

nobody's saying things that they can't say. However, a lot of issue has been paid to a lot of conservatives that say, Hey, our stuff

gets suppressed all the time and it's not fair and you're singling us out. On the other side, I've heard liberals say the same thing

Oh, you know, Facebook's all for the conservatives. They don't care about the liberals. I've heard that too

And every side, I guess, sees it from their own lens, but limiting section two 30 could

level the playing field. On the other hand, it could pretty much end social media if they were to end two 30 completely

That would be a devastating blow to social media. I don't know how it could survive that, but I think modifications could be made to it

with the help of Congress, of course, bipartisan solutions to, to make a level playing field

to make it. So somebody sitting at a desk in Silicon Valley isn't saying, I don't like that person's opinion. Nix

I don't like that person's opinion. Nix, whether it's conservative or liberal, we should all have the right to speak and

say our viewpoints, right? So that's, this is going to be a huge case

This is the case to watch. Like abortion was the case to watch last Supreme court session

This is the case to watch this Supreme court session. It is going to be huge

And the effects of this decision could linger forever and change the internet literally completely
