Pop legend Elton John announced on Friday: You won’t hear anything from him on Twitter again.
British pop legend Elton John (75) no longer wants to use Twitter after entrepreneur Elon Musk (51) took over the network.
The 75-year-old wrote on Twitter on Friday that he decided to do so after the recent change in the rules made it possible for false information to spread unfiltered there. «All my life I have tried to bring people together through music. It saddens me how misinformation is now being used to divide our world.”
Musk expressed his regret. He replied to the pop legend on Twitter: “I love your music. hope you come back Is there any specific misinformation that you’re concerned about?”
Following Musk’s takeover, a number of celebrities have already resigned from the network in protest at the entrepreneur’s line. Musk defends his deregulation with absolute freedom of speech. (bab/SDA)
