Yea but he doesn’t want it.
I bet they can’t make him, and I bet they are all facing charges for ignoring their fiduciary responsibilities by playing him for as long as they did. How many millions of Americans despise Twitter now. They’ll never recoup their former spot in world discourse.
Nice if they could get it considering that Twitter's market value is down to $32 billion and the chance that Musk could be forced to buy it is the only thing holding it that high.
ROFLMAO!
Elon: You con-artists running Twitter refuse to give me the internal information I need to accurately determine whether 5% of your Twitter users are bots or 20%, or 45%, or 90% ...
Twitter management: We love you, Elon, we love you.
Elon: You Twitter s***heads, I can't figure out what your company's worth unless you give me all your internal data about the extent of Twitter bot accounts.
Twitter execs: Yes, Elon, we love you, too. You're gonna buy our company and love us so much.
Elon: F*** you. I'm suing you. See you in court!
Twitter management: Awesome! We can't wait to see you in court, too! We really really love you! Looking forward to our mutual courtroom love-fest!
Elon: Are Twitter execs actually that ridiculously stupid?
Twitter management: YES! YES! YESSSSSSSSS!!! ......
%0 cents on the dollar, because that’s all it’s worth.
Given the recent revelations of the corporate ‘skullduggery’, if I were a shareholder, I’d be doing the same! No matter if Musk wins or loses his purchase lawsuit, the SEC man is going to be making a call. Also on the schedule will be all of the companies that have adverts on Twitter based upon contracts with specified views that those twits can no longer validate.
Back when Twitter had its IPO, I was watching a cable business program marvel at the soaring stock price. When one head asked the other head as to how could such value be attached to those mini-messages, the answer was to commercialize and sell advertising. Left unsaid was how is the viewers validated. If I recall, Nielsen Media made a try and gave up on it.
Now commeth the Reaper and the sickle is sharp. Interesting times ahead.
Speculation is if there is any Twitter employee without a resume out with the headhunters?
