They were excited by the idea of less controls under Musk, who has previously criticized Twitter&#8217;s moderation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFree speech is making a comeback,\u201d tweeted U.S. Representative Jim Jordan, a member of the Freedom Caucus of conservative House Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>Jordan and other Republicans have been critical of Twitter for banning former President Donald Trump and other notable conservatives.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s account, which had more than 88 million followers, was his primary communication tool during his presidency. He repeatedly used Twitter to claim his defeat in the November 2020 election was due to widespread voter fraud, and he urged supporters to come to Washington on Jan. 6, 2021, and march on the U.S. Capitol to protest the election result.<\/p>\n<p>Days after the storming of the Capitol, Twitter said it was permanently suspending Trump\u2019s account due to the risk of further incitement of violence.<\/p>\n<p>Political activists expect Trump could get his account restored after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/04\/04\/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-buys-9-2-stake-in-twitter-shares-skyrocket\/\">Musk\u2019s takeover of Twitter<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But Trump, who has hinted he wants to run for president again in 2024, said on Monday that he will not return to Twitter even if his account is reinstated and would stay on his own social media startup, Truth Social.<\/p>\n<p>Truth Social, which launched in February, joins other newer companies that bill themselves as champions of free speech and hope to draw users who feel their views are suppressed on more established platforms. But so far none have come close to matching the popularity of their mainstream counterparts.<\/p>\n<p>Senator Marsha Blackburn, another Republican, said on Monday: \u201cI am hopeful that Elon Musk will help rein in Big Tech\u2019s history of censoring users that have a different viewpoint.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Musk has said Twitter\u2019s algorithm for prioritizing tweets should be public and has described user-friendly tweaks to the service, such as an edit button and defeating \u201cspam bots\u201d that send overwhelming amounts of unwanted tweets.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFree speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy,\u201d he said in a statement on Monday. He also tweeted: \u201cI hope that even my worst critics remain on Twitter because that is what free speech means.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Amid concerns from human rights activists that the deal could lead to unfettered hate speech, Democratic lawmakers called for more accountability.<\/p>\n<p>Senator Elizabeth Warren, a progressive and a critic of the tech platforms, called the deal \u201cdangerous for our democracy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBillionaires like Elon Musk play by a different set of rules than everyone else, accumulating power for their own gain. We need a wealth tax and strong rules to hold Big Tech accountable,\u201d she said on Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>White House spokesperson Jen Psaki declined direct comment on Musk\u2019s deal but added: \u201cThe president has long talked about his concerns about the power of social media platforms, including Twitter and others, to spread misinformation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Representative Ro Khanna said the deal was a reason to pass a bill to protect the data of people who go online.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe need safeguards in place that give users more control over their data and ensure fairness and transparency,\u201d Khanna said in a statement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republican legislators applauded the purchase of Twitter Inc (TWTR.N) by billionaire Elon Musk, who describes himself as a free speech absolutist, while Democrats condemned it as evidence that more needed to be done to reign in Big Tech.
