I am true admirer of US style free speech regulations, but as EU citizen I agree with this action though. Why? Because Twitter already cave in (and rather easily I must say) to the Turkey request for pre election lets call it "special moderation".

So the solution is either heavy anti-monopoly regulation requiring splitting of Twitter to several competing entities (though preferable, probably not feasible w/o US agreeing and enforcing it) or less than ideal some kind of content regulation. Otherwise we are giving away ability to speak and censor to autocrats (again Turkey) while doing nothing. Kind of stupid. If it is already censored and regulated (again Turkey) I do not see big deal if it regulated according UE rules.
