Vitalik Buterin, one of the founders of Ethereum, requested Elon Musk to adopt a more balanced tone in discussions related to the H1B visa program. This request came after allegations of censorship and heated discussions on the X platform. Buterin reacted to Musk’s strong tweet defending the H1B visa program, which allows US companies to hire foreign workers, expressing his views. He emphasized the importance of individuals’ freedom of movement, warning against aggressive tones and censorship claims. Buterin argued that excessive use of censorship methods like the Ban Hammer could have dangerous consequences and ultimately lead to overpowering logical arguments. He also cautioned against public discourse violence and the risk of creating long-term rifts in society.
