Did they mentioned how organized groups are manipulating community notes yet? How nazi content runs rampant? How 99,9% of reports come back as "XXXX didn't break any rule"?

If you consider allowing trolling, forcing users to be subjected to fake information, conspiracy theories, and abuse without recourse. That doesn't seem like free speech. Forcing people to listen is not the same as allowing people to say what they want, whether anyone listens or not.
