During yesterdays Twitter Files drop, we learned that the Government was paying Twitter millions of dollars to censor conservatives and anyone else who opposed “The Narrative”. On Tuesday morning, Musk confirmed that the government was also paying other social media sites, too.
Other social media companies too, not just Twitter https://t.co/vH2EnMr9Iw

Musk was responding this Dave Rubin tweet:
Holy sheep shit. The government was actually paying Twitter to censor people.@elonmusk, maybe there is a way to make Twitter profitable! (Though will cost you your soul.) https://t.co/7oDPozZXpF

Twitter Files reporter Michael Shellenberger also pointed to this old video of Mark Zuckerberg discussing the FBI’s involvement in censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story on Facebook, too. Now we can safely assume that Zuckerberg was paid by the FBI as well:
13. They did the same to Facebook, according to CEO Mark Zuckerberg. “The FBI basically came to us [and] was like, ‘Hey… you should be on high alert. We thought that there was a lot of Russian propaganda in 2016 election. There's about to be some kind of dump similar to that.'" pic.twitter.com/yPGP8nYgCq
