Musk made the decision Thursday in response to the final results of a poll he tweeted Wednesday. The platform has already started unbanning accounts en masse, except for those who broke the law or engaged in excessive spam.<\/p>\n<p>Employees at the company reportedly learned of the mass unbanning through Musk\u2019s tweets and scrambled to try to figure out what he meant by the stipulations set forth in the tweets.<\/p>\n<p>Platformer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.platformer.news\/p\/why-some-tech-ceos-are-rooting-for\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">reported<\/a> that since Musk\u2019s tweet, Twitter has \u201cbegun the process of reinstating roughly 62,000 accounts with more than 10,000 followers, including one account that has over 5 million followers, and 75 accounts with over 1 million followers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The news comes after Musk already reinstated the account of former President Donald Trump on the platform despite Trump\u2019s repeated insistence that he will never return.<\/p>\n<p>The move to unban tens of thousands of accounts could prove to cause further problems that the company is having with getting major companies to continue to run advertisements on the platform.<\/p>\n<p>Investor\u00a0slides\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/elon-musk-reveals-how-twitters-business-is-doing-under-his-leadership\">shared<\/a> by Musk say that the daily inflow of new users has reached two million, while \u201cuser active minutes per day\u201d likewise reached eight billion. The company now has more than 250 million monetizable daily active users, Musk says. All three metrics exceed previous company records.<\/p>\n<p>Musk has been attempting to\u00a0avoid impersonations\u00a0by selling verification subscriptions for $8 per month, a policy that has repeatedly been\u00a0reversed and reintroduced. The slides said that reported impersonations spiked after he took control of the company before falling once again.<\/p>\n<p>The slides also show that purported hate speech impressions have been lower since Musk acquired the platform. Musk, who claimed he purchased Twitter to promote free expression and peaceful dialogue across the political spectrum,\u00a0revealed\u00a0last week that the company is still defining hate speech with \u201cthe same list of terms\u201d implemented before the acquisition.<\/p>\n<p>Musk also hinted at a number of new offerings from \u201cTwitter 2.0,\u201d including enhanced video content, long-form tweets, encrypted direct messages, and entertaining advertisements.<\/p>\n<p><em>John Rigolizzo and Ben Zeisloft contributed to this report.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Related: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/go-to-war-musk-targets-apple-claiming-it-canceled-ads-threatened-to-boot-twitter-from-app-store\">\u2018Go To War\u2019: Musk Targets Apple, Claiming It Canceled Ads, Threatened To Boot Twitter From App Store<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Twitter CEO Elon Musk has reportedly started to reinstate tens of thousands of Twitter accounts that have significant followings in an event that some inside the company are calling \u201cthe Big Bang.\u201d The news comes after Musk announced last week a blanket amnesty for Twitter users permanently suspended from the platform.
