Elon Musk finally bought Twitter, and free speech haters are having a bad day today.
Musk, who made the shock bid less than two weeks ago, said Twitter had “tremendous potential” that he would unlock.
He also made sure to address various changes from relaxing its content restrictions to eradicating fake accounts.
The firm initially rebuffed Musk’s bid, but it will now ask shareholders to vote to approve the deal.
As you probably know by now, Musk is the world’s richest person, according to Forbes magazine, with an estimated net worth of $273.6bn mostly due to his shareholding in electric vehicle maker Tesla which he runs.
He also leads the aerospace firm SpaceX as you probably know by now.
“Free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated,” Musk said in a statement announcing the deal.
He continued and said the following:
“I also want to make Twitter better than ever by enhancing the product with new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating the spam bots, and authenticating all humans.”

He concluded by saying:
“Twitter has tremendous potential – I look forward to working with the company and the community of users to unlock it.”
Som ene said: “Elon Musk is buying Twitter and everyone freaking out drives a Tesla. There’s never been a dumber time to be alive.”
Ron DeSantis said this: “@elonmusk’s offer to buy Twitter is a good deal for shareholders and raises the prospect that the platform will be a place where free speech can thrive, not a tool for narrative enforcement.”
Stay tuned for more news because some important changes will be taking place regarding Twitter these days, that’s for sure.
