After a tumultuous week for Twitter’s board members with a section agreeing to sell the platform to Elon Musk and another presumably the majority stakeholders bargaining for a higher valuation, the deal is said to be close to a conclusion.
Washington Post in its editorial said Twitter is in discussion with Elon Musk and could finalise a deal as soon as this week according to sources. This comes from the billionaire’s offer to take the social platform private with his US$43 billion offer, Elon had said recently that he has already gotten investors for the takeover and financing all sorted out.
Once in his hands, Elon plans to remove much of the restrictions in place on the platform and give the community more freedom in their conversation. However, as with all individual-owned technology platforms, there are concerns about one man’s view over the control of the voices of millions of users.
