Jack Dorsey confirms that he gave up on the hope of maintaining free speech on Twitter when Jewish activist investor Paul Singer took a major share in the company in 2020.
"Dorsey owned up to allowing the company to stray from the preservation of free speech, but added that he only allowed that to happen when he 'no longer had hope,' after an unnamed investment group bought up stock in the company in 2020.
Dorsey did not specify which company that was, but he was likely pointing to Elliott Management, which that year bought a majority share in Twitter for $387million under the direction of managing partner Jesse Cohn, who then set about trying to oust Dorsey."
