Though Twitter has often been referred to as a public square, some of Elon Musk’s recent moves challenge that description.

When thousands of Egyptians marched through the streets during the Arab Spring of 2011, they had a tool at their disposal that earlier social movements didn’t: Twitter. A key group of activists used the platform to form networks and organize protests against the authoritarian regime, while many more demonstrators used it to disseminate information and images from the ground for the rest of the world to see.

“The lack of verification, the mass exodus, the inability to coordinate the way that we used to be able to coordinate and the content moderation makes it a very difficult platform to be on at the moment,” Aoun said. Musk has stepped back as Twitter’s CEO, a role now held by former NBCUniversal marketing executive Linda Yaccarino. But he will maintain significant control over the platform as the company’s owner, executive chairman and chief technology officer.
