Twitter under Elon Musk


What is the future for Twitter under Elon Musk?



It was a moment that no one was sure would happen: After months of drama, Elon Musk said that the $44billion deal to buy Twitter is over. He announced the big news on Twitter himself, in fact he changed his bio to read "Chief Twit" and said "the bird is free". Job did, in his case. There has been no official confirmation yet, the silence from Twitter HQ so far has been unfortunate. But there's likely no one to send that email - Mr Musk has already sacked chief executive Parag Agrawal, chief financial officer Ned Segal and head of policy and policy Vijaya Gadde, while LinkedIn profiler Bret Taylor suggests he's gone and the business. . So what is Twitter Mr. Musk can be like?


Mr. Musk told potential broadcasters in an incredibly humble message posted on the site on Thursday. He talks about buying Twitter because he wants to "try to help humanity", and says he wants to "develop a digital social space". He accepted that his message might fail. The fact that he wrote to advertisers on Twitter shows that he now intends to at least stick to his digital advertising business model. And that's despite the fact that those costs are starting to fall for giants like Google-owned Alphabet and Facebook-owned Meta as the global economy slumps and companies find themselves with less money to spend. doing business. . 

I'm not so sure. Mr. Musk now offers a more restrictive view, saying that the platform will remain "acceptable", will respect the rules of the country and will not be "hell for all".
