France reportedly arrested a Big Tech CEO, took his phone, detained him for days and continues to restrict his travel. Here’s what he told independent journalist Tucker Carlson about the European Union’s crackdown on online speech.
Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov criticized the EU’s assault on free speech during an interview with Carlson that aired on June 9. Durov, who spent four days in detainment and can only leave France with permission during an investigation, warned that all Big Tech platforms operating in the EU are at the mercy of every tyrannical government in the bloc.
Durov described to Carlson just how severe and anti-free speech EU laws can be.
