Elon Musk's X, formerly Twitter, has cut half of its global team responsible for limiting election disinformation, including the entire Dublin-based global election integrity team. This comes less than a month after X reinstated political ads and pledged to expand its safety and elections team. Musk acquired Twitter for $44 billion last October and rebranded it to X. Earlier this year, the Tesla Inc CEO said he had cut about 80% of the company's staff.
