According to a survey conducted in May 2022, 23 percent of adults in the United States would probably not continue to use a social media platform if the owner was known to make rash decisions. Only eight percent of respondents stated that they were definitely willing to continue using a social media platform in such a situation. The scenario has come up due to tech billionaire Elon Musk's interest in buying social media platform Twitter.
