Elon Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has said that he wants to remove the ability for Twitter users to block other users. Musk made the announcement in a tweet on Monday, saying that he believes blocking is “a form of censorship.”
“I think it’s wrong that someone can be blocked for expressing their opinion,” Musk wrote. “If someone is being abusive, you can always mute them.”
Musk’s announcement has been met with mixed reactions. Some people have welcomed the idea, saying that it would allow for more free speech on Twitter. Others have expressed concerns that it could lead to an increase in harassment and abuse on the platform.
It is unclear how Musk plans to implement his plan to remove the account blocking ability. However, he has said that he is open to feedback from Twitter users.
“I’m open to ideas on how to do this in a way that minimizes abuse and prevents people from being harassed,” Musk wrote.
Musk’s plan to remove the account blocking ability is just one of the changes that he has proposed for Twitter. He has also said that he wants to make the platform more transparent and accountable.
It remains to be seen whether Musk will be able to implement his changes to Twitter. However, his announcement has certainly caused a stir and has raised questions about the future of the platform.
