A look at the potential changes to the social media platform.
In the past, his own tweets have garnered criticism and caused chaos.
So what can we expect from the social media platform once it is under Musk’s control?

Musk, including in his statement regarding the Twitter purchase, has been vocal about advocating for free speech.
But how free speech plays out in society continues to be a tricky space to navigate.
But when you throw in things like hate speech, among other things, it gets…complicated.
(The Twitter permanent ban listalso includespeople like David Duke and Alex Jones).
But will this banning be something Musk continues?
Maybe not and maybe.
Time-outs I think are better than some permanent bans.
Bringing back the Biebs?
One of those musings was around the list of top accounts by followers.
The top ten includedTaylor SwiftandJustin Bieber, who as Musk pointed out are not highly active on the platform.
A sign that caused him to ask: “Is Twitter dying?”
In Twitter, we, uh, trust?
That concept of trust naturally extends to news.
“Truth is the first casualty,” Musk wrote.
And so I do think this would be somewhat painful.
I’m not sure that I will actually be able to acquire it."
