Under Elon Musk’s guidance, Twitter continues to evolve on a daily basis, and now it has reopened its doors to people previously banned from the network.
Musk asked Twitter users on Wednesday if there should be a “universal amnesty” after reactivating numerous famous people previously banned from the platform.
“Should Twitter offer a general amnesty to suspended accounts, provided that they have not broken the law or engaged in egregious spam? ” Musk tweeted along with a “Yes” “No” poll.

72.4 percent voted affirmatively, while 27.6 percent voted negatively, totaling almost 3 million votes.
So, Musk followed the consensus and tweeted that amnesty will begin the next week.
“The people have spoken. Amnesty begins next week. Vox Populi, Vox Dei,” he tweeted on Thursday.

Musk earlier used the Latin term “Vox Populi, Vox Dei,” which translates to “Voice of the people, Voice of God,” when he announced that he would allow former President Donald Trump back on the platform.
Similarly, on November 18, Musk tweeted a poll asking if Trump’s account should be reactivated.
51.8 percent voted in favor, while 48.2 percent opposed.
