The debate raises serious questions about how local governments weigh the merits of a platform that has rebranded itself a bastion of free speech while constraining some of its previous policing of controversial content andfor supporting white supremacy, antisemitism and disinformation about elections and COVID-19.
But in Santa Clara County, Twitter is an important part of people’s daily lives, and it gets more engagement than other social media sites, even Facebook, county spokesperson Maria Leticia Gomez said Wednesday. On Tuesday, amid controversy for that and other moves, Musk announced he would step down as CEO once he finds a replacement.
But after internal conversations — mainly around the platform’s ability to quickly convey crucial information in the face of disasters like earthquakes and wildfires — a decision was made to remain, Gomez said. She was among those who advocated for its continued use. In a text message, Smith said the county doesn’t support “the way Elon Musk’s running Twitter,” but recognizes departments rely upon it for communication.
