Twitter’s new owner Elon Musk on Sunday started a poll asking users whether whistleblower Edward Snowden<\/a> and WikiLeaks co-founder Julian Assange should be pardoned by the US government. With 21 hours left, the poll has already had more than 1 million votes with about 79% of the participants voting yes to pardoning the two whistleblowers.<\/p>\n Both Assange and Snowden have been living in exile after leaking confidential and sensitive information exposing alleged wrongdoings and surveillance by the US military and intelligence.<\/p>\n Since taking over the micro-blogging site, Musk has been often conducting similar user polls. From feedback on revised Twitter rules to reinstating previously blocked accounts, Musk has been using these polls for major decisions about the social media website.<\/p>\n A few days ago, he started a similar poll asking whether former US President Donald Trump’s<\/a> account should be reinstated. After the people voted in favor of the reinstatement, Trump’s account was reactivated.<\/p>\n Earlier, he had also reinstated accounts tied to conservative media personality Jordan Peterson and the satirical website Babylon Bee.<\/p>\n
