Elton John – Friday, he announced he’s leaving Twitter, because it is allowing “misinformation to flourish unchecked.” Twitter stopped taking action against accounts spreading misleading information about Covid-19 last month.

In response, Twitter CEO Elon Musk wrote: “I love your music. Hope you come back. Is there any misinformation in particular that you’re concerned about?” 

All my life I’ve tried to use music to bring people together. Yet it saddens me to see how misinformation is now being used to divide our world.
 
I’ve decided to no longer use Twitter, given their recent change in policy which will allow misinformation to flourish unchecked.
