Since the taking of the reins by Elon Musk, Twitter has been undergoing many changes. A few months ago, the platform made headlines when it controversially restored the account of former President Donald Trump and other banned and suspended accounts, citing the freedom of speech as the reason for the action. Since then, there have been many new developments that have been implemented on the platform. In addition to restoring the accounts, Twitter also introduced many new features to the platform such as the ability to buy a blue tick, which allows users to verify their accounts and a new reach icon which gives users an indication of how far their tweets are reaching.
It’s been a busy time for Twitter, and things are about to get a bit busier. After announcing a few changes to its policies around user-generated content, the platform is now easing up on its policy around political advertising. The move is the latest change from Elon Musk as he continues to make changes to Twitter after purchasing the company last year. The move comes as Twitter is looking to boost revenue in the wake of the losses its making and its prediction of the upcoming recession and all the uncertainty it has brought with it. This change will probably boost the revenue of the company as there’s no shortage of political advertisements.
