Musk tweeted he disagreed with a decision Twitter made in 2020 to restrict the distribution of a New York Post article about U.S. President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter. The billionaire, who has about 87 million Twitter followers, called the company’s decision to lock the Post’s account on the platform “incredibly inappropriate.” His comment was followed by a wave of abusive tweets directed against the company’s top lawyer, Vijaya Gadde.
Musk, who on Monday reached a deal to acquire Twitter for $44 billion, was responding to a tweet by a podcast host Saagar Enjeti about Gadde, the executive who oversees Twitter’s policy and legal teams. Enjeti described Gadde as “the top censorship advocate at Twitter who famously gaslit the world on Joe Rogan’s podcast and censored the Hunter Biden laptop story.” Gadde then became the subject of a wave of personal attacks by Twitter users on the platform.
Twitter’s merger agreement with Musk stipulates that Musk can tweet about the deal while it is pending “so long as such Tweets do not disparage the Company or any of its Representatives.” There was no indication that Twitter, which inked the deal with Musk after deciding his offer was attractive, would seek to cancel the sale because of his recent criticism.
Musk can also pull out if Twitter does something naughty in between now and when the deal closes next fall. But there's nothing weird here - Twitter can't buy another company, or sell itself, or enter into a contract where it pays me its entire net worth etc. /8
Trudeau with his new censor law will shut down Twitter in Canada
Is he ok? Serious question?
When you have so much money it makes you insane and bat shit crazy, time to give it away. Feed the hungry, house the homeless, give hope to those with no hope. But DO NOT be a nut to society !! Elon the world really wants you to go away..
How many lawyers does take to define the word,'disparage'?
but if all the right wing nuts that were banned bet back on what will shills like NatPo have to talk about? nevermind, you don't care who you're talking against, just that you have someone to talk against something.
Nice try

Five reasons you should care about Elon Musk buying TwitterTesla CEO Elon Musk sealed the deal Monday to buy Twitter Inc for $44 billion cash, taking the social media platform private financialpost I can play! 1. It gives the people back their right to free speach 2. It presents a platform to share information that is being repressed 3. Will allow the public to do their own research and draw their own conclusions. 4. Limits government overreach 5. Transparency at last financialpost I'm not afraid, free speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences and you can always 'mute' anyone you wish. If Trump comes back on, just mute the fuck out of him, you don't have to listen to his drivel. Easy.

Geoff Russ: The world isn't ending because Elon Musk is buying TwitterThe world will keep on turning, regardless of whether Twitter is owned by Elon Musk, or members of the Saudi royal family Bear in mind, there's only one side that wants you to be censored. The other wants you to be free to say what you want, whether they agree or don't. For the libs it is !!! in fact its just getting better ,this is what internet was suppose to be like when it first came out years ago . it was never about censorship and blocking those you disagree with

Elon Musk now owns our ‘digital town square’Musk bought Twitter on Monday for US$44-billion. The platform has become a ‘digital town square,’ as Musk termed it, for people to share their political views or what they had for lunch - so why buy it? The Left is terrified of any free speech that isn’t their own. Great. I can finally speak my mind without being silenced by pathetic people. Elon Musk will bring glasnost and perestroika to the Twitter Soviet.
