New York: Twitter’s new chief executive officer (CEO) has already been the subject of controversy and criticism. The main reason for this is an old tweet he made 11 years ago when he was not even an employee of Twitter. Various questions are being asked about this.
According to media reports, Prag Agarwal, the new CEO of the social networking site Twitter, is facing criticism for an old tweet he made in 2010 when he was not even a Twitter employee.
In an earlier tweet, he quoted a comedian who had ridiculed racism and Islamophobia in the United States as saying, Why should I make a difference? ”
Based on this tweet, Ken Book, representing the 4th Congressional District of the US state of Colorado, has raised the question of how users can trust the new CEO of Twitter to treat everyone equally.
Also, US Senator Marsha Blackburn, based on Prague Agarwal’s old tweet, said that it is the new CEO of Twitter who is going to decide what kind of speech is allowed on Twitter. Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Rose Twitter, resigned from his post, after which Prag Agarwal, an Indian-American, was elected as the new CEO of the company.
