However, Musk assured them claiming that the service, ‘cannot become a free-for-all hellscape where anything can be said with no consequences.’

He said in a message, ‘The reason I acquired Twitter is that it is important to the future of civilization to have a common digital town square, where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner, without resorting to violence.’

Musk continued, ‘There is currently great danger that social media will splinter into far right wing and far left-wing echo chambers that generate more hate and divide our society.’
