Apology begins next week. Vox populi, vox dei." Vox populi, vox dei is a Latin phrase meaning "the voice of the people, the voice of God."

Earlier on Wednesday, Musk asked in a tweet whether the micro-blogging site should offer a 'general amnesty' to other suspended accounts.

According to the results of the survey, more than 3 million people voted for the poll. Of this, a majority of 72.4 percent voted in favor of the pardon, while 27.6 percent disagreed.
