Elon Musk’s $44 billion takeover of Twitter is on hold. The Tesla boss announced this and justified it with the lack of information on the number of spam and false accounts with the short message service from the USA. It must first be proven that these accounted for less than five percent of the users.
Twitter shares fell about 20 percent premarket. Twitter was initially unavailable for comment. The US group has pointed out various risks in connection with the Musk acquisition, including the question of the extent to which advertisers would continue to operate on the platform.
