Elon Musk has stayed silent on the results of a poll completed more than a day ago in which Twitter users voted for him to resign as the head of the platform. Musk had pledged to abide by the outcome of the poll when he posted it.
An individual also posted a message advocating that future polls over Twitter policy be restricted to users of the platform's subscription service, Twitter Blue, which costs $8 month. "We actually have skin in the game," the user said.Musk agreed, saying in reply, "Twitter will make that change."
Since he acquired Twitter in October, Musk has posted a flurry of controversial messages that have drawn attention to the platform.a viral tweet that called for Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top expert on infectious disease, to be prosecuted. In early November, he called on voters to cast their ballot for Republican candidates for Congress in the upcoming midterm elections, using his company to forward a partisan political objective.
The company relies almost entirely on advertising revenue, which depends on the number of users on the platform. Before he acquired Twitter, Musk told reporters at the Met Gala in May that "he wants a much bigger percentage of the country to be on it, engaging in dialogue."
