Elon Musk said on late Friday he would reinstate the Twitter accounts of several journalists which were suspended after he accused them of endangering his family.
Musk had drawn anger and warnings from the EU and UN after suspending the accounts of more than half a dozen prominent journalists from the New York Times, CNN and the Washington Post.
The latest controversy began when Musk on Wednesday suspended @elonjet, an account that tracked flights of his private plane.
Musk's move to suspend the journalists' accounts had drawn sharp criticism from media organisations, the European Union and UN.
"The people have spoken. Accounts who doxxed my location will have their suspension lifted now," the Twitter owner tweeted.
