Vijaya Gadde
Vijaya Gadde is the former chief censor[1][2] of free speech at Twitter under Jack Dorsey and later Parag Agrawal. Her role included handling what Twitter called "harassment, misinformation, and harmful speech". Gadde has been accused of meddling in the 2020 United States Presidential Election and affecting the outcome. She is considered by many as an extremist threat to democracy.
In 2021, she earned at Twitter $17 million in salary.
Elon Musk has criticized her in the past, accusing her of blocking the NY Post’s Hunter Biden coverage even before the Twitter Files revelations.
She broke down in tears in April 2022 when addressing colleagues about the future of Twitter once Musk moved to takeover the company.
Gadde was singled out in the explosive censorship of the Hunter Biden scandal Laptop from hell.[3][1]
