I was thinking about this today. The twitter people are deliberately refusing to give Musk the data because they are hoping he will drop his acquistion bid. They don't want Musk to buy the company. For his part, Musk is trying to drive down the price by highlighting the shortcomings of twitter. My prediction -- Musk will back out of the deal, when no bot data is forthcoming.
Agreed. It's a ploy on the part of both sides.
OK, it's a ploy on the part of both sides. Musk has made his intentions clear, but what are Twitter's intentions? If capitalism and profits were Twitter's goal, then Musk taking over would be welcomed. This is obviously not the case. So one has to wonder, what is the mission statement of Twitter if not to make money? So funny how the west mocks places like China and Russia for their state controlled media. At least in China and Russia we know who controller the media. Who controls Twitter? And for what purpose?
but what are Twitter's intentions?
Twitter is trying to get Musk to end his buy-out attempt so they can continue doing what they've been doing.
Yeah, that is obvious. But they are a company that has never made a profit. How can a company that has never made a profit be so fucking arrogant when someone wants to buy it and inject capital? They obviously don't care about making money or turning a profit. So who is holding them up?
