In a part of this conversation, he talked about equality, and the discussion reached Elon Musk's social network from there. The host of the program asked Cook, considering the allegations about the publication of anti-Semitic content on X, is Apple not considering reconsidering the display of ads on this platform? Cook said:
"This is something we ask ourselves. Overall, I think Twitter is an important asset. I like the idea that there is such a platform for dialogue and there is a kind of central arena for comment. Of course, there are things there that I don't like."
He went on to declare that anti-Semitism is disgusting and should have no place. He explained that Apple is constantly evaluating the conditions to continue operating in X and will continue to do so.
