Elon Musk had in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, said that he had “no choice” but to move the flagship office of the social platform out of San Francisco.
This social media post was in response to a New York Times report about an email from X chief executive, Linda Yaccarino to staff which said the office was closing, and the employees would move to San Jose and Palo Alto.
This development is coming weeks after Musk said he would move X and his rocket company SpaceX to Texas due to recent laws passed by the state. The new law bars schools from making rules to require staff to tell anyone, including parents, information about a child’s gender identity.
What They’re Saying
Elon Musk had said on X;
“[There’s] No choice. It is impossible to operate in San Francisco if you’re processing payments.”“That’s why Stripe, Block (CashApp) & others had to move,” he added, hinting that it was local laws that triggered his decision.
In July, the multi-billionaire announced that the offices of X and SpaceX would move to Texas, after California instituted the new gender identity law.
