Twitter’s legal team is accusing Elon Musk of violating a non-disclosure agreement
Over the weekend the future buyer of the social platform tweeted: “Twitter legal just called to complain that I violated their NDA by revealing the bot check sample size is 100″
To find out, my team will do a random sample of 100 followers of @twitter.

I invite others to repeat the same process and see what they discover …
The world’s richest man is set to acquire twitter with a $44 billion deal.
But on Friday, Musk tweeted that his cash deal to take the company private was “temporarily on hold”
I’m not suggesting malice in the algorithm, but rather that it’s trying to guess what you might want to read and, in doing so, inadvertently manipulate/amplify your viewpoints without you realizing this is happening

This comes as he waits on data regarding fake accounts on the platform.
He says his team will test “a random sample of 100 followers” on Twitter to identify the bots.
Musk added later that he is “still committed to the acquisition”.

But there are rumours he could be seeking to renegotiate the price or even walk away from the takeover altogether.
