Twitter has reported first-quarter revenue of $1.2bn , just days after agreeing to a $44bn sale to Tesla billionaire Elon Musk.
The amount was slightly below analysts' average estimate of $1.23bn , according to IBES data from Refinitiv, while net income was $513.3m - up from $68m a year earlier. Also during the first quarter, which ended on 31 March, the number of daily users grew to 229 million - a 16% rise. Mr Musk offered to buy Twitter earlier this month, vowing to make it a haven for free speech, reduce its reliance on advertising, and deal with the proliferation of spam-distributing bots.
While Twitter's board has given its approval to the deal, the reaction from Twitter users has been mixed.Musk, who also runs the electric car company Tesla, as well as SpaceX and other ventures, has said he wants to take Twitter private.
Why so long? Does that mean that Musk will not be able to make any (substantial) changes until the end of the year - even though he now owns the company?
Plenty of time to get rid of all the sht they have been doing.
FreeSpeech
Then Trump, Katie Hopkins & Tommy Robinson will be back
