Apple exec Phil Schiller shuts down his Twitter account

Apple Fellow Phil Schiller has deactivated his Twitter account, which was closed on Sunday for unknown reasons. Phil Schiller's Twitter account now shows as doesn't exist when users look up pschiller profiles online.

Schiller has a considerable number of subscribers on Twitter, about 265,800, and he also follows more than 240 accounts. Schiller used the account to promote Apple's various products and services. After all, he previously served as Apple's senior vice president of global marketing and is now an Apple Fellow.

There was no official explanation for why Schiller closed the account, but Twitter has undergone many changes in the weeks since Elon Musk took over, which may have contributed to its decision to close the account. Musk's moves include mass layoffs and increasingly demanding staff to revive the Twitter service, while changes have led many users to consider other services.
