Elon Musk buys Twitter and states that "it is not to make more money, but to help humanity." After many allegations and audits, the businessman was finally able to open the offices of his new social network and showed it off through it. This acquisition closed on October 27, 2022 , one day before the deadline established in the court of Delaware, United States. Although Musk says he wants to contribute altruistically through his Twitter operations, his business goals conflict, as he hopes to increase his income over the next 6 years with several projects that could be questionable. A social network…. For the sake of humanity? The businessman states that he made this purchase because "it is important for the future of humanity to have a place where different ways of thinking coexist and can debate in a healthy way and without violence." This is because, according to his statements, he considers that social networks have become places where hatred and social division are generated. In this context, it is important to remember the impact of social networks in different areas of public life. Since the interaction they generate can expand people's knowledge and entertain them, but also shape opinions about politics and define the success of brands. So, according to the billionaire, if you create a safe space for exchange, it could generate a positive impact on society and the planet.

Howeverthere are several problematic issues regarding content management, since if the owner of Twitter posts: "Later I'm going to buy Coca-Cola to put cocaine in it again," it is difficult to get an  Denmark Phone Number List idea about his intentions. Thus, Musk buys Twitter, but its purposes and Social Responsibility are not very clear. Musk buys Twitter "by force" This purchase has caused a stir since the beginning of negotiations, when 44 billion were agreed as the final price. Since Musk tried to get out of the deal in the first half of 2022, he claimed that the actual number of fake accounts did not match the audit carried out. However, Twitter refused to offer more data , as that would put the information of billions of accounts at risk. This caused Musk to withdraw the offer and, consequently, the social network filed a lawsuit against him to enforce a penalty clause for one billion dollars. Since, after the businessman's withdrawal, Twitter shares fell in price. And finally, through a legal dispute , Musk buys Twitter. "Musk apparently believes that he, unlike any other party subject to Delaware contract law, is free to change his mind, destroy the company, discontinue its operations, destroy the value of the stock for investors, and walk away.



Wants to regulate communication Previously, Elon Musk had stated that he wanted to get rid of the censorship that is already applied on Twitter, because he "defends freedom of expression." Ensuring that with a different algorithm, if someone does not want to see certain controversial content, they can decide not to do so. Which leaves open the possibility that hate speech and misinformation can be communicated through the platform. But, now that Musk buys Twitter he contradicts himself and seeks to create a "safe" space, stating that on this social network the things that are published may have consequences, since it will adhere to the laws to regulate the exchange of information. Likewise, he aims to offer a personalized experience according to the interests of each user, as applications like already do. Furthermore, we should know what freedom of expression means for Elon Musk and what is considered objectionable, because last May he assured that he would reverse the ban on accounts such as that of Donald Trump, who used to make problematic posts. This is because he considers Twitter to be “biased to the left,” and the businessman prefers neutrality.
