Musk’s Oct. 27 takeover of the company.
The Republican-led House Judiciary Committee published excerpts from the FTC’s letters Tuesday as part of a report alleging that the agency was overreaching “to harass Elon Musk’s Twitter.” The House said the requests amounted to a deluge of “demands about its personnel decisions in each of the company’s departments, every internal communication relating to Elon Musk and even Twitter’s interactions with journalists” who Musk’s team allowed to see certain employee emails and messages.
Those documents were dubbed “The Twitter Files” and were meant to show how the company made decisions to moderate content before Musk took over. In a response to the House report, the FTC said, “Protecting consumers’ privacy is exactly what the FTC is supposed to do. It should come as no surprise that career staff at the commission are conducting a rigorous investigation into Twitter’s compliance with a consent order that came into effect long before Mr. Musk purchased the company.”in May, about five months before Musk’s takeover, for violating the 2011 consent order.
So political.. not at all what they should be investigating.
How about an investigation on the FBI and politicians practices on silencing journalists and average Americans who dared to question the Covid narrative?
Pure political retaliation..
Oh now they're interested in the working of twitter, now that's it functions better than ever, on the way to be profitable and using half the workforce. Also not a bias propaganda mouth piece.
The Dems 2 target! Watch what you wish for, Trump loves to fight, Musk loves to win!
Probably all those not on the far right!
Oh look, the US government influencing a free speech platform. This is why there should be term limits on bureaucrats, stop socializing corporate losses and legislative immunity should be pulled.
Absurd overreach.
If you don’t have what it takes, you’re out! Just like with any employer. New owner?- oh boy that’s a shoe in for sure. The real corrupt churners of employees are something along the line of the mortgage industry.
You mean the Fascist Trade Commission?
Witch hunt for sure. We are now a police state. Elections have consequences!
