So this is a done deal? Don't the shareholders have to agree to sell?

They get Richer. [Under the terms of the deal, shareholders will receive $54.20 in cash for each share of Twitter stock they own, matching Musk's original offer and marking a 38% premium over the stock price the day before Musk revealed his stake in the company.] |

he is an advocate of free speech, which obviously isnt a bad thing, but it's easy to say what could be better when you are not actually in the hot seat
If it becomes more toxic, which is quite likely, it will drive people away in their millions. It could easily end up being the end of twitter in the same way as facebook has had its day |

Probably that all his right wing, bigoted, conspiracy theory friends, that were banned for good reason, will come back and they’ll all be allowed to run rampant

There are other social networks that are more successful in terms of user numbers and revenue, but Twitter is more influential.
Its influence is actually disproportional to its users. Code:
Top 10 Social Media Platforms Compared Revenue Launched 1 Facebook $86 billion 2004 2 YouTube $19.8 billion 2005 3 Whatsapp $5 billion 2009 4 Instagram $6.8 billion 2010 5 TikTok $35 billion 2016 6 Snapchat $911 million 2011 7 Reddit $212.5 million 2005 8 Pinterest $1,693 million 2010 9 Twitter $3.72 billion 2006 10 LinkedIn $8.05 billion 2003 The Top 10 Social Media Apps by Monthly Active Users 1 Facebook - 2.7 billion 2 YouTube - 2 billion 3 Whatsapp - 2 billion 4 Instagram - 1.16 billion 5 TikTok - 689 million 6 Snapchat - 433 million 7 Reddit - 430 million 8 Pinterest - 416 million 9 Twitter - 353 million 10 LinkedIn - 310 million I never realised Whatsapp was so popular. |

I use Twitter sometimes.
I have some good friends there. But I actually prefer Facebook.

What's Elon gonna find that they've been upto? Have they been working with governments? Have they been giving out people's personal details to governments and organisations? Have they been selectivly silencing people to control the narrative? Is that why they panicked about him taking over?

Milo Yiannopolous was one of the first to be permanently banned, for critiquing an actors performance in the Ghostbusters film. They never let him back on.
The real reason they wanted him gone was because his voice was influential in getting Trump elected in 2016, so they had to stop him and people like him simply to try and stop Trump winning again. |
