Elon Musk Restores Account of InfoWars Host Alex Jones

Elon Musk's social media platform X has restored Alex Jones's account, years after the InfoWars host was permanently suspended when the site was known as Twitter.

The move followed after Mr. Musk held a poll on X asking users if Mr. Jones should be reinstated on the platform. About 70 percent of respondents voted yes.

"The people have spoken and so it shall be," Mr. Musk wrote on Dec. 10.

Hours after the poll was conducted, Mr. Jones's account was again visible, and he had re-posted a comment about his new video game. His account, which has begun to accumulate followers, currently has about 1 million. He has yet to post anything original.

Mr. Jones's account with username "@RealAlexJones" now shows his last original post was on Sept. 6, 2018, the same day that the social media platform's previous owners permanently banned his account and his website, InfoWars, saying they had violated its behavior policies.
