Posted By TheNewsCommenter: From Businessinsider.com: “Elon Musk says $44 billion Twitter deal can't proceed until CEO proves the platform has fewer than 5% fake accounts”. Below is an excerpt from the article.
Elon Musk said Tuesday his proposed $44 billion Twitter buyout can't move forward until its CEO provides proof the platform has fewer than 5% fake accounts.
He said: "20% fake/spam accounts, while 4 times what Twitter claims, could be *much* higher. Yesterday, Twitter's CEO publicly refused to show proof of <5%. This deal cannot move forward until he does."
Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal earlier posted a thread on Twitter explaining why Musk's proposal to sample 100 random accounts to figure out what proportion of accounts on Twitter are spam wouldn't work. Musk responded with a poop emoji.
