Irish Justice Minister Helen McEntee has claimed that most social media companies complied with the government’s requests to take down posts during last week’s Dublin riots. However, Elon Musk’s X refused, the minister said on Wednesday.
The minister’s statement follows mass unrest that erupted in the republic’s capital last Thursday over the arrest of a man who stabbed five people, including three children, outside a primary school. A five-year-old girl and a woman in her 30s are in critical condition. The man was later found to be an Irish citizen who had immigrated from Algeria.

I like to hear about different countries, especially Ireland
@9HBVZZL1yr1Y
if it is in their land they should be able to blur it out

I feel like that doesn't go against one of the rules of the government which is "freedom of media" if u shut people out from these rights then people won't have a clear understanding of what's going on
