Elon Musk launches new Twitter poll on whether to allow suspended users back after he reinstated Trump's account based on another poll https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-runs-twitter-poll-suspended-accounts-2022-11
The old twitter would make these decisions in secrecy, with very little comment, made by wokesters who were unavailable to the press and public Now you all complain with a process that is democratic,transparent and accountable to one person...
And doing it in vape filled back rooms is the better option? Maybe its bot vs bot....the woke should have an advantage in this bot war
Suspended accounts were given a reason and a chance to appeal, what is this woke bullshit you are talking about? Can you give one example of an account suspended without reason? Let's look up their history.
Most accounts were given multiple warnings before they were permanently suspended. These posters had an opportunity to change their behavior. Keep in mind that Musk has closed the Brussel's office and has no intention of following the EU's rules regarding hate speech. He fails to understand that regulators in Europe have the power to shut down the entire company, demand huge fines, and block the site in Europe over deliberate non-compliance. Twitter’s Brussels office closed, sparking legal concerns https://9to5mac.com/2022/11/24/twitters-brussels-office/ A new report today says Twitter’s Brussels office closed after all of its staff either resigned or were fired. The development has sparked concerns about whether the company intends to ignore a new law on content moderation. The prospect seems even more likely after Musk again decided to leave it to his Twitter followers to decide whether virtually all banned accounts should be reinstated. Background A new European law was passed last week, known as the Digital Services Act. It places legal obligations on social media companies to address illegal content, disinformation, and hate speech. A core concern is the trade and exchange of illegal goods, services and content online. Online services are also being misused by manipulative algorithmic systems to amplify the spread of disinformation, and for other harmful purposes. These new challenges and the way platforms address them have a significant impact on fundamental rights online. Russian bots have been particularly problematic, as they post fake news about the invasion and occupation of Ukraine, as well as US election disinformation. Because Brussels is the home to the European Commission, most large global companies have offices there to lobby for or against proposed new laws, and to ensure that policy-makers in their companies are kept up-to-date with new legal obligations. Twitter’s Brussels office closed The Financial Times reports that Twitter’s Brussels office is now closed, after its entire staff either resigned or were fired. Julia Mozer and Dario La Nasa, who were in charge of Twitter’s digital policy in Europe, left the company last week, according to five people with knowledge of the departures. The executives had led the company’s effort to comply with the EU’s disinformation code and the bloc’s landmark Digital Services Act, which came into force last week and sets new rules on how Big Tech should keep users safe online. Other Twitter executives in the small but vital Brussels office, seen as a crucial conduit to European policymakers, had left at the start of the month during company-wide cuts that removed around half of its 7,500-strong workforce. Without any staff in Brussels, it seems likely that Twitter could now fall foul of the new law, either deliberately, or simply because the company no longer has experts on the ground to help it understand its new obligations.

Private company can do wtf it wants, but don't call a twitter poll "democracy" when 4channers rig this shit all the time for the lolz.
So no different than Trump. Stiffing vendors and employees. Elon Musk refuses to pay travel invoices Twitter incurred before his arrival, report says https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech...-pay-twitter-travel-bills-report/10763316002/
So Musk and a bunch of his clowns from Telsa who never have written a program in the language used at Twitter are firing software engineers after "code reviews". Can this situation get any more laughable.
There will be more to come. Many are unable to demonstrate their competence or refuse to comply with Elon's reporting requests. Full speed ahead Elon. Replace them as needed. Take all the deadwood out or those who are temperamentally unable to make the transition and are therefore toxic. Don't be held hostage by and of those clowns.
