Elon Musk Twitter Deal

In April 2022 Elon Musk proposed to buy out social media giant Twitter for $44 billion. Previously he stood on the board directors as the company's single largest shareholder. The buyout deal remains ongoing, and details around his plans for the site remain elusive. Twitter would become a private company that is for sure, and Musk has suggested the need for increased transparency and the removal of spam bots. Concerns regarding democracy have been raised about the reinstating of banned accounts, and the potential for moderation to be neglected.
