Twitter, under the leadership of Elon Musk, dissolved an outside advisory council minutes before a schedule meeting, according to reports. 

The Trust and Safety Council comprised nearly 100 independent civil, human rights and other organizations that the company formed in 2016 to address hate speech, child exploitation, suicide, self-harm and other problems on the platform.
