New Twitter policy is freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach.
Negative/hate tweets will be max deboosted & demonetized, so no ads or other revenue to Twitter.

“New Twitter policy is freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach.Negative/hate tweets will be max-deboosted & demonetized, so no ads or other revenue to Twitter. You won’t find the tweet unless you specifically seek it out, which is no different from the rest of the Internet,” he tweeted.
While adding that the company has not yet made a decision about the account of former President Donald Trump, he also revealed that Twitter aims to reinstate some contentious accounts that have previously been suspended or banned.
Jordan Peterson, a contentious Canadian podcaster, and the right-wing satirical website Babylon Bee, both of which had been previously barred from the platform, will have their accounts reinstated, according to Musk. He also said that comic Kathy Griffin, whose account had been suspended earlier this month for pretending to be Elon Musk, would have it back, according to CNN.
“Kathie Griffin, Jorden Peterson & Babylon Bee have been reinstated.Trump decision has not yet been made,” he tweeted.
