Twitter\u2019s stock price has been declining since a drastic drop on 25 October. Unlike the rising concern about Twitter turning its interest to the advertisers and commercialising more, Dorsey insisted on prioritising ethics. \u201cBest to focus our efforts on the root problems, without the additional burden and complexity taking money brings. Trying to fix both means fixing neither well, and harms our credibility.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Amid a volatile change in general election date and the Brexit, Twitter is expected to act its role as a platform that shares fair information.
