The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, on Saturday issued an open letter to Elon Musk, the new owner of Twitter, urging him to "ensure human rights are central to the management of Twitter".
"Twitter is part of a global revolution that has transformed how we communicate," Türk said in the letter quoted by Reuters. "But I write with concern and apprehension about our digital public square and Twitter's role in it."
"Like all companies, Twitter needs to understand the harms associated with its platform and take steps to address them," he added. "Respect for our shared human rights should set the guardrails for the platform's use and evolution."

This is so laughable.
IOW, “offense” is in the eye of the “offended”.
No matter how myopic or astigmatic.
🤮
What a fatuous twit, just the sort to “rise high” in the UN.
He and it can be safely ignored.
That it is.
New Twitter is a for profit privately owned business.
It is not meant to be a part of Government, although the Old Twitter was indeed one of the Govt’s tools and tentacles.
Such crap. WWIII is normal people everywhere vs the globalists.
Sure to enrage Animal Rights Activists.
There were no human rights before the 21st century?
GTFO!
Those stinking communist bastards need to be deep-fried...
Corporate goals should be the production of goods & services, making a profit for the stakeholders, providing employment opportunities, and staying out of culture wars and politics...
Possibly, Elon might accidentally have a rocket crash into the UN building...
What a terrible loss to the world that would be...
Guterres brown noser. Beware of idealistic Austrians
Horrors! Elon will be frightened to death by those idiots issuing edicts.
He should block their accounts too.
They can still use Facebook.
Is this the first time the UN told a company how to manage its business?
We were all brute savages before Facebook, Twitter,Instagram and Tiktok.
Laughable... Volker Türk, an Austrian from the town where Hitler and Eichmann grew up want’s to give US an assaholic lecture about the guardrails of society? About respecting rights?
I notice his Bio is silent about his dad and grandpa. Wonder which SS Division they were in?
And nobody notices that the most destructive ideas in government come from that German zone. Marxism, Prussian bureaucracy, Nazism, mass import of moslems, and of course, homosexuality is known as “the German vice”. Hell, the very word homosexuality is a German invention.
This clown needs to STFU and learn something about the essential importance of free speech.
He needs to tell Volker to go take a flying leap at a rolling donut. Jughead needs to worry about the UN, Musk will worry about Twitter.
I thought that’s what he was doing.
