Elon Musk is a media favorite. He always does something that stirs the headlines for weeks. Ever since he bought Twitter, the Tesla CEO has been making drastic changes in the company. This includes firing nearly half of its employees, introducing new policies, and unbanning suspended accounts.
After he took over, a mass resignation took place in the company. Several celebrities also left the micro-blogging site, citing it as unsafe. Recently, a top executive of Twitter has stated that it has become “fast, aggressive” after Musk became its boss.

Is Twitter Under Elon Musk “Fast, Aggressive”?
Musk has made an overhaul of Twitter after he took over the company. These changes aren’t sitting well with a lot of users as well as employees. One of them has decided to speak out.
Ella Irwin, Twitter’s Vice President of Trust and Safety Products, talked about the company in an interview. “The biggest thing that’s changed is the team is fully empowered to move fast and be as aggressive as possible,” Irwin stated.
She also said that the company is aggressively handling abuse-prone hashtags and search results which include child exploitation. This will impact the “benign uses” of those terms on the platform.
Irwin said that Musk has told his employees to focus on user safety and not to think about the repercussions. “He emphasizes that every single day, multiple times a day,” she said.

Musk Suspended Ye’s Account, Again
West, officially known as Ye, has been on a spiral to spew hatred. He was banned briefly from platforms like Twitter and Instagram for his anti-semitic views.
He was unbanned right after Musk took over Twitter. However, now the SpaceX founder has suspended his account again. A user named Alex asked him, “Elon fix Kanye Please.”
“I tried my best“, the world’s richest man responded. He further tweeted: “Despite that, he again violated our rule against incitement to violence. Account will be suspended.”
West was unbanned nearly two months ago in October for spilling hate on the internet. The ban took place after his interview with Alex Jones where he praised Adolf Hitler.
