Elon Musk
CEO Tesla
Twitter’s board has unanimously accepted an offer from billionaire Elon Musk to buy the social media company and take it private. The cash deal at $54.20 per share is valued at around $44 billion and requires shareholder and regulatory approval. Musk has indicated that his primary interest in Twitter is his views on the company’s censorship of free speech. Still, with possible disagreements, Musk critics are concerned that his control over the platform will silicate their voices.
