And im, we are harding and joe hall with all your latest world cup news, including could tar hitting back at further criticism as it prepares to host the tournament. Theyve summoned germanys ambassador over remarks made by a government minister. Ah, ah, welcome to the news. Our twits is new owner e long masks there is, has given his 1st hint at how he might moderate content on the wells most influential social media platform. He came hours after the deal for mosques. Acquisition was finally sealed and after he fired, at least for top executives, including the ceo and chief financial officer, musk had until friday to complete the 44000000000. 00 deal he signed in april. It will mark the end of a 6 months saga, filled with accusations and legal challenges. But the focus now shifts to how mosque might shape the tone and texture of a platform used by millions of users. And whether that may include the return of some of twitters more controversial faces. Early on friday, musk tweet is that the company would for a content Moderation Council with widely diverse viewpoints and that no major content decisions or account reinstatement. What happened before the Council Meets were joining me for more now on this is kristen salumi in new york co. Kristen, of course. This is the deal that was on. It was off now back on again. But what finally does this all mean for the man himself . He la musk and twitter while eli mosque is now the man in charge, he doesnt have to answer to shareholders who will be getting a hefty pay out. Ah, and he can make his vision a reality or attempt to any ways he had until friday to finalize the 44000000000. 00 deal. He tried to get out of it back in july, claiming that the board had not revealed the full extent of spam accounts. On twitter, stocks had also fallen quite considerably at that point as well, and twitter sued him to go through with the deal. A court had given him the deadline of friday to wrap things up or go to trial and wrap it up. He did so now he is the man in charge and papers have been filed to formally remove the company from stock markets and make it a private company. And chris, and we have a bit of a more of a sense about whether or not controversial figures will be allowed back on the platform. Obviously weve been focusing our attention on wall donald trump. Were looking at homes above a right well ellen musk has made no secret that he wants to roll back some of the restrictions on the platform. Hes said in the past that he would reinstate president donald trump. He thought removing him from the platform after the january 6 capital riots was inappropriate. But he did mention today on twitter facing concerns and possible backlash from advertisers that he would be forming this content. Moderation council to review decisions like that. He said no major content decisions or reinstatement of accounts. What happened untold this council had a chance to meet. And so while he has described himself as a free speech, absolutist, he has also said that he realizes that you cant have a free for all hell escape those were his words are free for all hell. Escape where anything could be said with no consequences that clearly he is concerned about keeping advertisers on the platform, especially if a controversial figure like donald trump is returned. And trump himself said today that he was happy to see that twitter was now in, quote, seen hands. But he also said that he preferred his own social media platform that hes been using since getting kicked off twitter. So even if he is reinstated, questionable whether or not hell be back or i kristin. Silly me love new york. Rosemary, thanks or chris soccer walkers, a freelance freelance tech jealousy joins me now by scott, from northumberland in the united kingdom. Welcome to the news hour. There seems to be very little middle ground on a lot, boskus and basie, the scene as a digital charlatan, as mighty maintain, or something of a pioneering visionary whos re shapes this platform. That was pretty much down and its nice weather you stand. I think im probably in the form, but youre right to use the equivalent in the u. K. We say mom i, which is a breakfast spread that some people really love and some people really hate and for people who love the law, musk and everything that he represents. Including as he said, the free speech, absolutism james. Ready for this is a day and weve already seen the reaction on twitter. All these people who think this is a fantastic development. This is something that is brilliant for the future to attend. But in reality, for most uses, i think it is concerning. And weve seen, likewise, people on twitter deciding, well, maybe the time is up for me on this platform. And i wont bother after all. Continuing on it given the potential skepticism from potential users who might decide to stop using the platform as he say, i want to see aim to make this profitable because of course, since the underlying game isnt it . It is, i mean he wouldnt buy this if it wasnt to try and make money and i think that is potentially. Busy the biggest challenge is because twitter ultimately has been relatively poorly run for the last 10 also years and it wasnt the best idea for him to really take the so risk bought over the over 54 dollars 20 per share, which is more than the company was worth on the stock market. So yes, to try and recruit some of that. We have a little bit of a clue in terms of what he wants to do. Twitter recently has been rolling out Subscription Services including twitter, blue, which you pay around about 5. 00 a month for the raise a him that he wants to expand that and also maybe make other features paid for. But we, we dont really know in this is kind of the, the big are known in the big challenge with the musk is that hes, hes so based on whim that he doesnt really know whats going next. Its very difficult to discern what hes talking about, what to expect a huge public for him. What exactly is coming next and talking about unknowns . He has mentioned about transforming twitter into an application that fulfills many roles. And he talks about this everything app. It seems quite a claim here are tease time, do you think twitter or something will record those . I think that its probably still going to be basically what we think of in terms of very short micro blocking in. Thats what it was originally designed for. Otherwise you say he has kind of highlighted in the purchase process that he wants to make this thing called ex the, the super app, which is a very chinese model. All social media platforms. There are apps in trying to, such as we chat, which have lots of functionalities in the payment processing, micro blocking photos, all of these Different Things and its almost like a one stop shop. But i think while he may want to do that, i think that there will be more pressing find out. Yes. Put out really so long term attrition of employees on happiness over the future of it. And then this huge uncertainty amongst us as well. So i wouldnt bet my farm on twitter looking significantly different in 2 years time. I think probably the most cost of a long long list of his in trade i guess, to get through 1st. Right. Talking specifically about about free speech that we now know given the announcement a short while ago that they will be the content Moderation Council. Do you think about sounds like a good way of potentially regulating a site that he says he wants to be as free as possible . I think is a useful way pretending attention, depending on who he actually grows it from. I know that hes said that he wants it to be as broad as possible, although it is with pointing out that and he content Moderation Council that has people who century spread hate speech is not going to be worth its salt. And i think, you know, he runs off again, some risk of alienating those who think this is going to be a Free Speech Free for all if he doesnt include those people while also raising the eye or regulate as if he does include people. So i think hell most he promises big things here. We were almost literally promised the moon on the state because he run space excess Space Exploration company where we thought we would be on modest by now. And yet were not. So the hyphen, the reality are often mismatched when it comes to muscular i think when it comes to content, Moderation Council, that is a really useful way to try and head off potential regulate re fears. And there are a lot of them given, eat on mosque is quite well known for raising the i or of those people. But whether or not it actually manages to kind of assuage peoples fears. Im less susan about that. Indeed, muska a man with many fingers in many pies. Chris stuck a walker, freelance tech journalists many thanks for joining us on the news. Our coming up on al jazeera, this news are fresh elections in Northern Ireland. As post breaks it, trained arrangements continue to drive division in sport.

She does go 24 hour security as your, the congressional leaders not, not afforded to members of family of the speaker, unless there is some sort of specific threats that is being investigated. The department of Homeland Security did say, recently and good war members of congress. There was a heightened risk of violence against them and in the threats to members of congress have increased by 144 percent over the last 5 years. But these are, these are the verbal threats. The rhetorical threats quite quite often. Us Capitol Police say theyve arrested less than 100 people this year, even though they have been some, some, 9009006600 threats called it. And those people who were arrested or who are detained, just simply had Mental Health problems, but often january 6th, when, when writers broke into the capital, extensively searching for members of congress to punish them along with the social media that the environment of the social media where violence statements can be amplified even if they have no real meaning the real realistic threat to those being referred to this is adding to that sense of insecurity amongst some in washington.

Now i really how it we could temperature like air, most of your cleaners, but of course im worried. I dont know what we can is back in the future. The Russian Campaign over the last couple of weeks has been highly systematic targeting, not so much large power generating facilities as smaller sub stations that transfer the electricity to the rest of the grid. Soviet era and with parts that are hard to replace, restoring supply is proving difficult. Its a tactic that threatens homes, businesses and the Digital Space here at lynette.

But that was also sold out back home. They said theyre doing their part to save power, but almost everything in their apartment runs on electricity. For all their positivity, the pain of this war intrudes all too easily. Memories of the last winter when they were under Russian Occupation in a nearby village, or informing their fears of the coming one.
