Without citing a source, Musk claimed in a tweet that Twitter is “20% fake/spam accounts” and suggested Twitter’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission were misleading. The company has said that less than 5% of its daily active users are spam accounts.

Musk is doing his due diligence to ascertain what he is buying. Perhaps he should have done so before making an offer. It also seems possible that he couldn’t get the answers needed until Twitter was forced by the offer.
I learned that Musk is associated with Larry Ellison who hereto fore was not visible. I would guess there might be one or two other heavies playing as well. They were not born yesterday.
They now have management and the board on the ropes. The longer it goes on the lower the price of the stock.
Time is in the favor of Musk et al
“He” includes Larry Ellison and seems to really be they. Elon and Larry are said to be friends.
I would suggest that exposing the fraud they knew with certainty existed, they are carefully making their assault on Twitter. Rather than give up, they will win and then remake the company according to some as yet unrevealed plan
Two billionaires are doing a very public service and having a good time in the process
One way or another, Twitter will not continue as in the past.
Wokism is not good business and ultimately destructive. The most obvious illustration is Disney. Twitter will be another object lesson. At best, Woke businesses become niche businesses and lose prominence.
No tweet will ever top his “if you need to lose a boner fast” tweet w Bill Gates.
IMO it is impossible to conduct any operation that utilizes large amounts of data in a covert manner. Question is: Do you want a bunch of goons rousting you and your family out of your house at 4AM in the morning?
Could it be that Musk and Trump were in cahoots? This all is happening after Trump’s tweet about his Twitter is a bad buy for Musk because of the fake accounts. Hmmm.
You never know! I thought it interesting that Musk said Trump’s name for his new site was not good. He’s right, and why would you give your competition good advice? Hmmm...
I have read conflicting reports on this. Some say he sold, some say he changed alliances.. other's say he is in control but only loosely. It's hard to find a definitive answer.
