Twitter deleted its controversial new policy -- less than 24 hours after the policy’s initial introduction.

Twitter deleted its controversial new policy on Sunday evening that had banned links to certain other social media platforms, less than 24 hours after the policy’s initial introduction. The development comes shortly after company owner Elon Musk launched a Twitter poll asking users whether he should step down as head of the platform. That poll is set to conclude early Monday morning.

Following an immense backlash against the policy, Twitter removed the blog post that had outlined which rival sites users would be prohibited from tweeting links to, including Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon and Truth Social. It also deleted a tweet thread from its @TwitterSupport account that had announced the policy earlier in the day.

Kinda was hoping this would strike a petty social media war with other platforms creating retaliatory policies 😂

He changed the policy back, meaning that he listened and followed the public voice.

TempJeannie

Where was cnn when ny post was suspended 😂🤡

Elmo is running this company worse than a start up led by a teenager.

because he was about to get sued for breaching the law and he's already struggling financially

Maybe Elon can blame this one on his new Chief Twit

Too much fail

almost like there's someone at the helm that doesn't know what they are doing 🤣😂🤣

i wish you fools covered the border as much as twitter. maybe then biden would see the invasion happening. possibly the worse news org. ever

Elon Musk listens to the people ! Good for him👍

One thing EM commits to: transparency & real democracy, something CNN will prob never again attain. I still remember a time when CNN was my daily go to, anywhere I was in the world, to know what's going on in the world. Until they became overrun by biased activists & propaganda

elonmusk is the worst CEO in the world.

Low engagement with fake news.

Trump is not a Racist!

Yes, fail faster

Maybe cnn should quit Twitter your ratings are low too

I would like to take poll so he can be voted out.

CNN claimed to be a news site and then the truth came out that they are Government owned media

Twitter is sure Directionless...this is what happens when u shoot from the Hip...especially a Maverick☹️

So much for free speech. Even deleted it should never have been put in place to begin with. Maybe he didn’t want to share hate speech with other platforms?

shoe0nhead that didn't last, did it?

The New York Times quoted HadiQaemi,The director of human rights in Iran,as saying that agents in Tehran identified and arrested a fourteen years old girl for removing her hijab at school through cameras, she was taken to the hospital with a severe vaginal tear and she died there

Not quite. Just tried to Tweet my Mastodon profile and this was the response.

Doxxing billionaire and Stalking his child is a new low of Mainstream media, how about he does the same to your board members?

I hope he turns the tables on the left . I like watching them cry

Elon needs to focus on the media next . close their accounts. Their nothing but tabloids

Question: Does elonmusk have any fucking clue what he’s doing? Seems like he fired all the ‘adults in the room’ at twitter, and is now surrounded by yes men… It’s glorious to watch the ‘Genius’ fuck up on repeat! How’s tesla doing Elmo?

It is a sign that policies can be changed, since in the dictatorship of thought this is impossible.

Oooooooh! Elon Musk has a learning curve? Oh, the humanity! At least Elon has balls enough to jettison something if he perceives it to not be working. Far too many allow Confirmation Bias to drag them to the bottom of the ocean to obscurity. Are you committed to excellence?

I’m loving to see how badly Musk is failing with Twitter. Every fail for him is less than he deserves.

Twitter stays like that, the policy will gradually leave Twitter

SalutNico What a mess, mElon!

Another protester was killed According to Kurdistan media reports, MohammadHajiRasoolpoor , a former political prisoner, was tortured to death. This well-known political activist was arrested during the recent Bukan protests. MahsaAmini StopTorturingPrisonersInIran

This is Musk getting the basics of policy wrong. Do people still want tech founders/ business leaders to be in charge of public policy? As the wise person says:' stay in your lane.'

Twitter is an one of exemples that confirms that The Left spreads chaos, disorder and disorientation to the people to segregate them. Fakenews, desinformation, HIDDEN MENSAGES, Left-pseudo-specialists' commentaries, robots, tons of filters, millions of algorithms, etc.

Twiiter is been used by the Letf-media around the world as a tool to spread their agenda, little by little. They are using their social position of JOURNALISTS (mainly) as an alibi to change our perception. THEY ARE USING YOU. Pls check this out. Twitter

🚨***RED ALERT***🚨 That news was written by a Left-Militant-journalist. Note that Main Media spread the LEFT's agenda coordenately around the world. THEY ARE ONE ONLY THING. elonmusk they are changing, inverting the facts and then manipulating our perception. ***BE CAREFUL***

Imagine being publicly blackmailed by a 12 year old! 😆 Teenager seeks $50k from ElonMusk to delete Twitter bot tracking private jet!

It’s news now even when Twitter doesn’t do something?

🤡News network

We are glad to do so. Twitter

El dueño de este 'tuiter' muy ambicioso. No le será suficiente con lo qué ya tiene. Esa platica de su ambición le sirve a muchos ancianos, niños desprotegidos y hasta la familia de él. Mucha ambición no sea, q se le rompa el bolsillo del saco.

Embarrassing. They have no clue.

Sounds like a good company, listening to people, engaging with them to see what works and what doesn't. Maybe you should try it.

Elon Broke Twitter Mission Accomplished

Obviously. Because it goes straight against EU law! badmanagement

Mollusc quickly realised he was violating EU laws and back tracked faster than a hiker facing a mama bear. 😅😅

You should cover the FBI involvement like this, you just might earn back some credibility

🍋 usk is cray cray

It’s not controversial at all. How many other companies like when their customers promote a different type of product?

every deleting, shadowbanning, banning, muting, dead naming banning and every woke idiocracy was ok when it was done by woke leftist twitter mods. Now the media is whining about this. And media is not biased at all?

What a shit show

Tesla or Twitter. Which company will fold first?

Elon Musk offers journalists he banned from Twitter ability to return under certain condition | CNN BusinessNew Twitter owner Elon Musk offered several of the journalists he banned from the social media website earlier this week the ability to return to the platform if they deleted the tweets he falsely claimed shared his 'exact real-time' location. Why are you on His site pedaling your lies? Dem: Yes, please, more censorship. Also Dem: No! Me being censored is fascism. 'Falsely claimed'. elonmusk was cool w/Tesla & SpaceX, but when he bought Twitter he became an enemy of the state. The real problem is the lefties, (D)s, & 'journalists' have lost control of Twitter w/nowhere to go. If they had somewhere to go, they wouldn't be whining & crying.
