The SEC filed an enforcement action against the exchange in June 2023, alleging it had operated as an unregistered securities exchange, broker and clearing agency. On Jan. 7, a federal judge stayed the case until a higher court ruled on an interlocutory appeal.

On Jan. 7, the Facebook founder said his company would “get back to our roots around free expression” by ending third-party fact-checking in the United States and “lifting restrictions” on speech.

Less than a week later, it became clear that Zuckerberg’s commitment to free expression doesn’t include decentralized social media competitors like Pixelfed and Mastodon. When Facebook users tried to link to these platforms, they were met with “spam” notifications and their posts were purged immediately.

This week’s Crypto Biz explores Meta’s contradictory approach to free speech and whether Zuckerberg is sincere about getting back to his roots — or whether he’s playing a game of political chess with the incoming Trump administration.

Meta’s commitment to free speech apparently doesn’t extend to backlinks to decentralized social media networks. According to a 404 Media report, Facebook has been actively removing links to Instagram competitor Pixelfed and Mastodon, an open-source social networking service.

According to Bloomberg, Chinese officials may consider selling TikTok’s US operations to Elon Musk if the platform is forced to shut down in the country. While TikTok parent company ByteDance is still trying to fight the ban through legal means, the incoming Trump administration is seen as a wildcard.

Bipartisan legislation passed in 2024 mandated a full ban on TikTok in the country if ByteDance fails to divest the platform. Lawmakers say ByteDance’s ties to China represent a national security risk, especially if user data is shared with the government.

For his part, Musk said he’s opposed to a TikTok ban on grounds that it would be “contrary to freedom of speech and expression.”
