Sputnik and RT Editor-in-Chief Margarita Simonyan tagged Elon Musk on Twitter after the businessman purchased the platform, asking if he plans to reverse restrictions against the Russian media.After Musk finalized his deal with the platform, he changed his status to "Chief Twit" - and according to reports, he is planning to drastically change Twitter's policies.The billionaire himself reiterated his commitment to free speech, noting that he bought the platform because "it is important to the future of civilization to have a common digital town square, where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner."Over the past years, Russian media has become the target of a massive censorship campaign, as access to Sputnik and RT was limited on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and other social media platforms.
