The policy, which banned links to Facebook and Instagram was retracted less than 24 hours after it was implemented 👀 Twitter TechNave

as subsequently met with criticism from Twitter users and now, the company has backtracked on that decision and deleted the new policy.

As reported by CNN, the ‘u-turn’ was made less than 24 hours after the policy’s introduction. Moreover, Twitter had also deleted the blog post that had outlined which rival social media platforms would be prohibited from tweeting links to. Besides that, Twitter also deleted a tweet thread from its @TwitterSupport account that had announced the policy.

Both polls are set to conclude today, though we’re not sure whether such polls would have any bearing on the decision that the company would make. One thing’s for certain though, we won’t be surprised if more changes and backtracks would be happening at Twitter under Musk in the near future. What do you guys think?
