Elon Musk tweeted Friday that the next chief executive of Twitter would not shadow ban the social media platform's users. Musk announced Linda Yaccarino as the company's new CEO.
"That will not be the case," the billionaire tweeted, responding to concerns from some Twitter users.
The tweet that Musk was responding to shared an edited screenshot of incoming CEO Linda Yaccarino's LinkedIn profile. His response came before he publicly named Yaccarino as the social media platform's new chief executive. The term "shadow ban" often refers to discrete actions by social media platforms to limit the visibility of a post.
