In an unusual move for what’s been an unusual takeover bid for Twitter by the world’s richest man, Tesla CEO Elon Musk addressed the social platform’s employees Thursday, even though his $44 billion offer has not yet been completed. Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal announced an all-hands meeting to employees in an email on Monday, saying they’d be able to submit...

Elon Musk will address Twitter employees on Thursday, for the first time since offering $44 billion to buy the social media platform, the company said Tuesday.

Elon Musk on Monday threatened to walk away from his $44 billion bid to buy Twitter, the latest sign that his plan to overhaul the social media platform may really be starting to fray.

Experts have said the billionaire can’t unilaterally place the deal on hold, although that hasn’t stopped him from acting as though he can.

Twitter reached a $150 million settlement with the Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission over alleged misrepresentations of data privacy practices.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk says his deal to buy Twitter can’t move forward unless the company shows public proof that less than 5% of the accounts on the social media platform are fake or spam.

Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal said Friday that he still expects the deal to sell the company to Elon Musk will close.

Elon Musk says the Twitter deal is on hold until he gets more information about fake accounts on the platform.

Elon Musk has put his plan to buy Twitter on temporary hold, raising fresh doubts about whether he’ll proceed with the $44 billion acquisition. In a tweet early Friday, the Tesla billionaire said he’s skeptical that the number of inauthentic accounts presented by Twitter is as low as the company suggests.

A federal judge dismissed a lawsuit by former President Donald Trump seeking to lift his ban from Twitter.

Casual users will continue to be able to use the social media platform for free, the tech billionaire said.

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell was banned from Twitter for a second time after attempting to use a new account to access the social media platform.

Elon Musk sold roughly $8.4 billion worth of Tesla shares, according to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Perhaps no group of people is more alarmed about Elon Musk’s apparent plan to make Twitter a free speech free-for-all than those most likely to be targeted for harassment: women, racial minorities and other marginalized groups.

Brash, outspoken and sometimes juvenile, Elon Musk has long been a prolific user of Twitter, the social media platform he now hopes to buy

Twitter was flooded with user reports of high-profile accounts losing thousands of followers — and some gaining — in the hours after news broke that Tesla CEO Elon Musk would purchase the social network.

After Twitter agreed to sell itself to Elon Musk, co-founder Jack Dorsey posted a Spotify link to the Radiohead song “Everything In Its Right Place.”

Musk’s free speech advocacy seems to apply mostly to his own speech or that of his fans and promoters.

Now that Twitter has agreed to Elon Musk’s bid, what’s next? Here are some answers.
