Ye (better known as Kanye West) was reportedly<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/kanye-west-skechers-adidas-yeezy-antisemitism-221430991.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:locked out of his account;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\"> locked out of his account<\/a> in October following antisemitic comments he made there, which the site blocked after they had been seen. He was back to tweeting by Nov. 2, though.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, some familiar faces \u2014 or at least familiar names \u2014 declared their intention to leave or take a break from the platform. Musicians Toni Braxton and Sara Bareilles, as well as producer Shonda Rhimes, said they were out of there.<\/p>\n<p>Braxton noted that she was &#8220;shocked and appalled&#8221; at the &#8220;free speech&#8221; she was seeing after Musk&#8217;s arrival.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hate speech under the veil of &#8216;free speech&#8217; is unacceptable; therefore I am choosing to stay off Twitter as it is no longer a safe space for myself, my sons and other POC,&#8221; she tweeted.<\/p>\n<p>Actress T\u00e9a Leoni appeared to have deleted her account altogether. According to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/pop-culture\/celebrity\/twitter-celebrities-leaving-elon-musk-rcna54831\" data-ylk=\"slk:NBC News\" class=\"link \">NBC News<\/a>, she last tweeted Oct. 29: &#8220;Hi everyone. I&#8217;m coming off Twitter today \u2014 let&#8217;s see where we are when the dust settles. Today the dust has revealed too much hate, too much in the wrong direction. Love, kindness, and possibilities for all of you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And there were others. <em>Bill &amp; Ted <\/em>star Alex Winter, <em>This Is Us<\/em> executive producer Ken Olin and <em>Billions<\/em> showrunner Brian Koppelman made it clear that they&#8217;re leaving the Twitterverse. Disney star Josh Gad says he&#8217;s considering a departure.<\/p>\n<p>Winter&#8217;s bio was changed to, &#8220;Not here for now,&#8221; and his posts were deleted.

Gonna really try to take a breather from here for a minute or a month come deal close time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gad explained that he wasn&#8217;t sure if he would stay or not.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Leaning towards staying,&#8221; he posted, &#8220;but if today is a sign of things to come, not sure what the point is. Freedom of speech is great. Hate speech intended to cite harm, (with no consequences) ain&#8217;t what I signed up for.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He retweeted a press release announcing that 40 civil-society groups were demanding that Twitter&#8217;s top advertisers stop supporting the site &#8220;if Elon Musk continues to undermine brand and user safety.&#8221; He also amplified a tweet from author Stephen King objecting to Musk&#8217;s plan to charge users for verified status.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, actor and director Rob Reiner pleaded with his followers to stay with Twitter and to vote for Democrats in the upcoming election on Nov. 8.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
