Free speech warrior Elon Musk defends move to 'censor' Twitter in Turkey ahead of controversial presidential election

Chief Twit Elon Musk has defended his move to 'censor' Twitter in Turkey ahead of Sunday's presidential election after backlash he received over the move.

Users were appalled when Twitter announced Friday it would limit access in the country without specifying the content or accounts that would be affected.

Musk became especially defensive after American blogger and journalist Matt Yglesias brought attention to the decision.
