Twitter Inc chief executive officer Parag Agrawal has responded to a poll posted by Tesla Inc chief Elon Musk, his company’s biggest shareholder, by calling it important and urging users to “vote carefully.”
Musk revealed this week that he’s acquired a 9.2% passive stake in Twitter, however his recent postings on the service – where he has more than 80 million followers and has filled the void left by Donald Trump as one of the most influential accounts – have actively discussed perceived shortcomings.
On Monday, Musk queried if his followers wanted an edit button, offering misspelled “yes” and “no” options in his usual humorously casual style. Agrawal, who succeeded Jack Dorsey as CEO in November, quote-tweeted the poll and recited words that Musk had used on an earlier post about Twitter’s adherence to free speech principles: “the consequences of this poll will be important.” The Twitter CEO may have been lightly mocking Musk’s query, though the action still shows he’s keeping a close eye on the account of the Tesla and SpaceX chief.
