On her appointment, the Financial Times pointed out that Mr Musk was sceptical about the World Economic Forum, which Mr Yakrino is linked to, which he had previously criticised as "increasingly an unelected world government".

Musk assured fans that he did not believe that Yakrino's links to the World Economic Forum hindered his commitment to freedom of expression, writing about her appointment as chief executive of Twitter, "the commitment to open source transparency and acceptance of a wide range of views has not changed."
