Promoting a healthy environment within its social media platform, billionaire Elon Musk vowed to support individuals who will experience discrimination from their employers in connection to X or Twitter.
On August 6, SpaceX Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk penned a message to its users to directly report any employer discrimination due to their likes, follows, shares, and statements on the said platform.
“If you were unfairly treated by your employer due to posting or liking something on this platform, we will fund your legal bill. No limit,” Musk said.

Following his statement, a lot of netizens replied, raising their concerns and even their past experiences when their employers discriminated against them due to their social media expressions.
This announcement was included in the new features and services brought by the online platform after Musk rebranded Twitter to X on July 23.
The said rebranding was made in compliance with the technology company of Musk, the X Corp. “Twitter was acquired by X Corp both to ensure freedom of speech and as an accelerant for X, the everything app. This is not simply a company renaming itself, but doing the same thing,” he said.
With this, its users were to expect other upgrades to the platform, as Musk vowed to “add comprehensive communications and the ability to conduct your entire financial world.”
