The Tesla CEO says his deal to buy Twitter can't move forward unless the company shows public proof that less than 5% of the accounts on the social media platform are fake.

LONDON -- Tesla CEO Elon Musk says his deal to buy Twitter can't move forward unless the company shows public proof that less than 5% of the accounts on the social media platform are fake or spam.

He added:"Yesterday, Twitter's CEO publicly refused to show proof of 5%. This deal cannot move forward until he does." The battle over spam accounts kicked off last week when Musk tweeted that the Twitter deal was on on hold pending confirmation of the company's estimates that they make up less than 5% of total users.

With deal in doubt, Elon Musk and Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal debate bots on TwitterTwitter CEO Parag Agrawal and Elon Musk are engaged in a debate over an issue Musk has made central to his proposed purchase of the platform — spam. I consider Musk tweets as spam. As observed by Kochhar (2015, p. 1), within this global sphere, 7 out of 10 people ‘live on $10 or less per day’, a view supported by the World Bank (2021), which provides further evidence that more than 37% of people live below the poverty line elonmusk realizing twitter is not worth 54 billion just buy the whole nba .. much more profit than having twitter for 54 billion lols real value of twitter is 2 billion tops

Musk: Doubt About Spam Accounts Could Scuttle Twitter DealTesla CEO Elon Musk says his deal to buy Twitter can’t move forward unless the company shows public proof that less than 5% of the accounts on the platform are fake or spam. Musk made the comment in a reply to another user on Twitter early Tuesday. He spent much of the previous day in a back-and-forth with Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal. Agrawal posted a series of tweets explaining his company’s effort to fight bots and how it has consistently estimated that less than 5% of Twitter accounts are fake. 'Can't' OR 'Won't'? So tired of elonmusk spoiled, self-entitled attitude. So glad he left California. We DON'T want him back... ever. ElonMusk
