I'm not sure if they're really blackmailing him or just noticing how shitty the platform is becoming. Almost every decision made by Musk has made the platform worse.

The decision to remove one sided enforcement of policies?

Sure, if you want to close your eyes, be oversimplistic and it fits your worldview.

I’m not trying to be rude or close minded here but before Elon Musk, Twitter was a left lining platform, and there was blatant proof of right wingers being banned or censored on the platform. Before he even took off for the platform, a lot of people are gunning for him, and for the company to fail under him simply because he wanted to make it open for everyone. I don’t agree with all of his decisions, but considering the circumstances that he was in when he took over the company I don’t see what else prove my point, there was even leaked documents, showing FBI involvement and censor in American people which is a first amendment violation.

I don't think most people are gunning for Elon for "Making it open for everyone", they're gunning for him because he makes shitty decisions and has been fucking up the platform, and if you add to that that there has allegedly been more posts for racism, then it's easy to see why companies don't want to have ads on Twitter.
