Since Elon Musk's 2022 acquisition, the platform has been a subject of debate regarding content moderation changes, free speech policies, and algorithmic amplification of viral content. Podcasts frequently cite it as a space where disinformation spreads rapidly, particularly around sensitive events, while also noting its algorithmic influence on political discourse and user behavior.
