It is the best of times, it is the worst of times. For social media giant Twitter, it is definitely one of the most tumultuous times in its 16-year-long existence. Ever since the richest man in the world came on board as the new owner of the microblogging site, Twitter has been witnessing an upheaval of monumental proportions.

In the run-up to becoming the acquirer of the worlds most famous social media platform, Elon Musk on numerous occasions had made it clear that he will make Twitter a space that will uphold freedom of speech.

Amid the spate of mass resignations at Twitter, the 51-year-old took to his Twitter account to announce a new content moderation policy. Musk also reinstated some accounts that were earlier banned from the platform. The surge of resignations was a result of the ultimatum issued by Musk to commit to a hardcore and intense work environment or take a 3 months severance and leave.

New Twitter policy is freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach. Negative/hate tweets will be max deboosted & demonetized, so no ads or other revenue to Twitter. You wont find the tweet unless you specifically seek it out, which is no different from the rest of the Internet, read Musks tweet.
