Twitter's CEO stayed silent on Elon Musk's pending $44 billion acquisition of the social media giant but he did address other hot-button issues during a shareholder meeting.
"Silencing political commentary is antithetical to our commitment to free speech," Agrawal emphasized. "We operate our platform and our service all over the world in very different political context and use a consistent set of Twitter rules all around the world in order to improve the public conversation on the service.
"Our tools and processes aim to enforce these rules without any bias and do so dispassionately and equally for all users, regardless of their background, political affiliation, all around the world."Agrawal noted that Twitter's goal is to "earn trust broadly" from its users. "In order to do so, we continue to increase transparency and choice for people, we take responsibility for the mistakes we make, we seek input and feedback, we strive to learn from our mistakes and continue to evolve our approach as is," Agrawal said.
"And, as I said, we are constantly improving our product, our policies and our processes in order to earn more trust. We believe Twitter is a place for different voices and perspectives to be heard. Our rules are enforced objectively on content and accounts, and our policies remain neutral to political identity and ideology."
