- First off, Elon Musk does not adhere to permanent bans on social media accounts. That is why he announces reactivating Donald Trump’s Twitter account.

- Second, Musk will also bolster free speech on the platform. He wants to make it clearer for users if the platform takes action over their tweets.
- Third, he also plans to eliminate bots promoting scams and spams by making Twitter’s algorithm publicly available for everyone.
