Elon Musk now controls Twitter, and apart from firing the company's top executives, the Tesla CEO is now making one change to make the platform fit his vision.
On Thursday, Bloomberg reported that Musk intends to ban permanent suspensions on the platform.
"Musk also intends to do away with permanent bans on users because he doesn't believe in lifelong prohibitions," the person told Bloomberg.
As a result, there's speculation whether this means former President Donald Trump will return to the platform despite launching his social media outlet, Truth Social. Nonetheless, there's no clear message whether Trump intends to come back.
"That means people previously booted off the platform may be allowed to return, though it was unclear if that included former president Donald Trump," the person added.
Besides removing permanent bans, Musk is also reaching out to advertisers about his plans for Twitter now that the platform takeover is complete.
"That is why I bought Twitter," Musk said. "I didn't do it because it would be easy. I didn't do it to make more money. I did it to try to help humanity, whom I love.
"And I do so with humility, recognizing that failure in pursuing this goal, despite our best efforts, is a very real possibility. That said, Twitter obviously cannot become a free-for-all hellscape, where anything can be said with no consequences!"
