What began with the firing of Twitter’s chief executive, Elon Musk has now laid off 3,700 employees after his $44 billion purchase of the company. With his purchase on Oct. 27, Musk acquired Twitter’s $13 million in debt. Musks firings have become a desperate attempt to salvage the company by cutting down on labor costs and infrastructure. This cut on infrastructure has already begun to affect the app’s content moderation. Similar to other tech companies as of late November, Musk aims to expand its profit margins in response to a foreseeable recession and high-interest rates.
