Twitter Says it Will Relax Ban On Political Advertising
The move appears to be a break from a prohibition on all political advertising, which Twitter instituted in 2019 in reaction to growing concern about misinformation on social media.
Twitter says it will ease up on its 3-year-old ban on political advertising, the latest change by Elon Muskas he tries to pump up revenue after purchasing the social media platform last year.
The company tweeted late Tuesday that “we’re relaxing our ads policy for cause-based ads in the US.”
“We also plan to expand the political advertising we permit in the coming weeks,” the company said from its Twitter Safety account.
Twitter banned all political advertising in 2019, reacting to growing concern about misinformation spreading on social media.
