After closing the USD 44 billion acquisition deal on Thursday, the new Twitter chief, Elon Musk, has begun to reform the policies of the micro-blogging platform and is wasting no time remodelling it by cutting off employees, and introducing plans for a council to determine content decisions, The Hill reported.
Despite doubting his intentions multiple times to follow through with the acquisition deal, Tesla CEO Elon Musk is now in charge of Twitter. Regarding the changes in the content moderation policies, Musk wrote in a tweet that “Twitter will be forming a content moderation council with widely diverse viewpoints. No major content decisions or account reinstatements will happen before that council convenes. “In one of the first few changes, he purged the top executives of the company as soon as he closed the expected deal, after which Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal and finance chief Ned Segal left the company’s San Francisco headquarters. He also hinted that more changes to the status of accounts banned under the previous leadership are to come in the early days of his leadership, according to The Hill.
