Mr Musk completed his $44bn purchase of Twitter on 28 October after months of wrangling. He has since laid off half of the firm’s 7,500-strong workforce, and hundreds more staff are believed to have left, following an email saying that long hours and “hardcore” work would be required of those who remained. Elon Musk says Twitter will provide a “general amnesty” to some suspended accounts from next week. This came after he started a poll on Wednesday asking Twitter users whether accounts that had “not broken the law or engaged in egregious spam” should be let back on the social media platform. Do you Elon Musk is playing mind games ?
