Legally, the U.S. has very minimal limitations over company-related censorship, although Europe is a different story, where companies and social media are policed far more stringently in that regard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, experts are also quick to point out that Musk has repeatedly championed free speech and has said that his purchase of Twitter was meant to further that goal, which is to turn the platform into a global \u201csoapbox\u201d for all to hold public discourse. It\u2019s entirely possible that Musk\u2019s ownership of Twitter might not only have a negative effect upon the vehicle industry, but a positive one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, there have been other instances of billionaires owning media companies, including Amazon founder Jeff Bezos\u2019 ownership of the Washington Post, and Comcast owning NBC Universal; and while some have criticized aspects of those situations, experts have noted that currently, there is little evidence that anyone has taken censorship on those platforms to any extreme levels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SAN FRANCISCO, CA &#8211; As of last week, Tesla CEO Elon Musk is now the owner of Twitter, a highly-influential microblogging website, and experts are weighing in on the&nbsp;possible ramifications that development may have&nbsp;upon the automotive industry going forward.
