But as the tech giants grappled with narrowing profits, this proactive stance began to dissolve.
Almost immediately, Musk’s reign at Twitter forced his peers to rethink other industry standards.
In a June interview with the right-leaning tech podcast host Lex Fridman, Zuckerberg said Musk’s decision to make drastic cuts to Twitter’s workforce – including by cutting non-engineers who worked on things such as public policy but didn’t build products – encouraged other tech leaders such as himself to consider making similar changes.
When Twitter, seemingly in response to journalists’ questions, appeared to restrict his account, Musk declared he was “looking into” complaints that Finchem was being censored. Later that evening, Finchem was back to tweeting his message. He thanked Musk “for stopping the commie who suspended me from Twitter a week before the election.”
Now, Meta is eyeing ways to cut down on having to referee controversial political content on its new Twitter-like social media app, Threads. Instagram head Adam Mosseri, who led efforts to build Threads, said earlier this year that the platform would not actively “encourage” politics and “hard news,” because the extra user engagement is not worth the scrutiny.Article content
