Out of the world’s trending news reports, the one that has taken away the breath of many is the firing of many top executives of Twitter after Elon Musk took over the platform. But now that he is the new owner of Twitter, we cannot expect this single change only; the experts suggest there are many more to come.
Are you wondering how Twitter will transform in the future under the ownership of Elon Musk? Well, this blog will help you dig deeper into the most probable predictions of the experts out there. Grab a cup of tea and dive in now!
Elon Might Address Various Concerns Relating to the Freedom of Speech
For those who don’t know much about Elon Musk, he was GineersNow’s front cover story back in 2016, and he is believed to be a ‘free speech absolutist’ by many, and hence, he had always had a problem with Twitter’s restrictions on the use of free speech in posts. He has often complained in the past about how Twitter’s algorithm works mysteriously to promote or demote a post without having actual proof of the insights. But now that he has taken over the platform, he will most probably address the issue by bringing forth an open-source algorithm system.
Many of his well-wishers, like Mathe Dopfner, have requested Musk to make Twitter a censorship-free place. They have urged that Twitter should be a platform where multiple algorithms can mix in together.
For instance, if a user wants more gambling posts, he can pick an algorithm that shows him posts from various betting experts of the top crypto casino! Also, if a person isn’t comfortable with certain kinds of posts, he should be able to switch over to another algorithm that matches his taste easily. This way, Twitter will become a place where everyone will get to see something of their liking.
Removal of Bans
Elon Musk openly talked a few times about how he plans to remove the permanent bans from several renowned accounts, including Donald Trump, the former US President. This, too, shows the side of Musk that believes freedom of speech to be one of the most vital human rights, even on social media platforms.
Firing More Employees to Cut Down Costs
We know it is shocking to learn that Elon Musk might fire more employees than he already did but there’s a chance he would because of his constant statements relating to his plans on cutting down the costs of the company. A few reports suggest that Musk might cut down over 75% of employees by 2023 end, giving rise to a rise in global unemployment!
Removal of Bot Accounts
Elon Musk looks determined on removing bot accounts and adopting premium security features to make Twitter a safer space for the masses. He believes that the number of bot accounts at present is far more than what the company survey shows (less than 5%). Hence, we can expect that in the future there will be more human accounts on Twitter than bots!
