Musk backed OUT on the Twitter deal

JUSTIFIED? He's being sued.

Counter sue is the name of the game.


Disclosing all of the current practices on this company, Musk is vehemently proposing changes such as transparency.

He's scrutinizing all the management criteria to make sure he's able to control everything specifically eliminating fraudulent practices such as fake accounts.


Obviously there's a lot of anomalous parts in the real number of accounts presented.




44 billion is the number. The latest today, 4/25/2022

Yipeeeee Freedom of speech guaranteed.

Quite honestly? I'd have preferred that he'd start one similar from ground up and that'd be better.
Well from Offer to rejection to finally closing it.

I couldn't be happier. teddybear

Yep that's the latest Today.dunno

Yes a very good gesture to provide a true freedom of speech to all.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates is bracing for potential trouble when fellow billionaire Elon Musk completes his acquisition of Twitter, saying the free-speech advocate could make misinformation more prevalent by failing to properly police comment on the social media platform.

“He actually could make it worse,” Gates said of Musk on Wednesday in a Wall Street Journal interview. He added that the South African has a “mind-blowing” track record of building successful businesses at Tesla and SpaceX by being bolder than competitors and “really showing them up.”

“I kind of doubt that will happen this time, but we should have an open mind and never underestimate Elon,” Gates said. “What’s his goal? Where he talks about the openness, how does he feel about something that says vaccines kill people or that Bill Gates is tracking people? Is that one of the things he thinks should be spread? So it’s still… It’s not totally clear what he’s going to do.”
I am not surprised that he feels that way Luke. I'm concerned that he calls him South African. I think Gates is jealous.
Why on earth are you concerned that Gates called him a South African? One can't cancel the roots of a person. Musk dodged the 2 year compulsory military training in SA by going to the USA. I doubt if Gates said it in a derogatory way as many South Africans are highly sought after world wide.
I think I was more concerned of the fact that he's jealous and denying Musk of his US citizenship. But neither am I denying of the fact that there are many famous South African well sought for their talents.
Yes he's born in South Africa but his citizenship is the US. The need to call him South African is rather odd.
If I lived in the USA for a 100 years I would still consider myself to be a South African. It's something I can't explain but most of us feel that way. In fact it goes for any part of the world. Don't let Gates' utterances bother you he has had his time. Keep well.
Thanks Luke. You're right, I lived in the US longer than anywhere else but I always say I'm a Filipino. Thanks Luke. wave
So there's a disinformation board created because the left is losing their control of providing fake news.
Are you ready for liberals to lose their minds???
BREAKING: Elon Musk Says He Will Reinstate Trump’s Twitter Account

Didn't musk put a hold on the acquisition of tweet due to a late discovery of tweet fake accounts? dunno
I think that's true Chris, let me make sure wave
Chris it's on hold dunno
I think he's rather pay the break-up fee than own this stock in the 30s after paying $54 a share.
it makes sense Hula, I thought he'd just go ahead and start one from the ground up.
He would never attract the lefties to one he built , it would end up looking like a 280 character version of Rumble , full of wac jobs over shadowing any quality . He can still buy it at a much lower price and pay the billion fee for failing to purchase at 44 billion . Money that would in part end up back in his hands as he is already a share holder . This is not all about free speech , Twitter is a large advertising company .
Elon Musk tweeted on Friday that his $44-billion cash deal for Twitter Inc was “temporarily on hold” while he waits for the social media company to provide data on the proportion of its fake accounts.
No comment rolling on the floor laughing
I think most of the value factored in are because of that E. The high dollar worth of ads.
The stats on Twitter show of all social media sites, it is on the bottom of the dung heap. Now, if you are shopping, you want real facts. If a saleman says he sold 500 units a day, you would like to know it is not just on paper before you hire him. Otherwise it is called padding the books.
Likewise if you want to buy a business and the seller says they have a thousand accounts, you want to be sure those are not half their relatives who just opened an account and never bought product.
Musk is making sure that those books are real. Advertisers buy according to reach. If they find out they are reaching half of what they are told they are...bye bye birdy.doh Musk didnt make his money pulling slot machine handles or betting on the horses. Especially one who has won one race in 5 years.
K my friend, nice to see you.
.yes, it's all a matter of value and what's worth as presented.
It will be settled that's for sure
I went back and looked ok, I will think nice thoughts and let the mind wonder. from your profile to college I would imagine that you had attention.
In my business I have 2 sets of books. 1 for me and 1 for the taxman.
laugh
I know it would definitely surface E. The fake accounts I mean. Heck here alone at CS, there's a huge number of fake accounts, too.
I did get a lot Swamie. But not like I craved them. bouquet
Luke be careful bouquet
Yes indeed my friend. The presented value would be overestimated and must be adjusted to what's the actual number is.wave
It's still investigated, the actual accounts, I mean.
A tool created by the software company SparkToro that distinguishes real accounts from fake accounts known as “spambots,” or “bots,” found that almost half of President Joe Biden's 22.2 million Twitter followers were not real, Newsweek reported on Tuesday.


I wonder how many of the bots were part of the 81 million votes in 2000?


confused confused confused
That's the question Will. Will it ever be sorted out you think?
Maybe in January when Congress gets cured of the plague they now have.
Elon Musk Announces He Will Vote Republican In Upcoming Elections

Watch out for Musk and Trump. They are in the courting phase. So far Musk has sent two overtures to Trump and the first one was snubbed, we'll see about this latest one. In the end Trump will use Musk and the debt will remain unpaid, just like what happened with Putin. Or did he give Putin just enough to keep him at bay?
Trump was supposed to win that election, that's why he's fretting. Putin is waiting, which he is good at, it took him 16 years to get Berezovsky.
Buying Twitter... it's not about free speech, but about Control, Lindsy!

Knowledge is Power...
Power is Control.

Just watch out, Lindsy.uh oh
You're talking about Musk?""
Who cares about Musk. A rich buffoon who only cares about himself and money. Anyone who appreciates him needs to see a psychiatrist.
