Elon Musk posted on X tonight that he has just fired the entire ‘Election Integrity Team’ at X.
This unit was created to identify threats from foreign and domestic sources by “posting or sharing content that may suppress participation, mislead people about when, where, and how to participate in a civic process, or lead to offline violence during an election.”
We now head into the critically important 2024 elections with no guard rails on perhaps the most influential platform in American politics. What could go wrong?
Maybe this is one of the reasons why Elon Musk bought Twitter in the first place.
CONFIRMED: Elon Musk has fired the entire Election Integrity Team at X, the unit created to identify threats from foreign and domestic sources manipulating our elections. https://t.co/BG1lf6R1Uq
