whistleblower
After the richest man in the world served a whistleblower with a subpoena demanding information on how Twitter checks spam accounts, Elon Musk delivered a second letter of deal termination to the social media platform.
In July, Musk withdrew from a $44 billion bid for Twitter, claiming that the firm had lied to him and authorities about the actual amount of spam or bot accounts on the microblogging service.
Musk has reportedly asked Peiter Zatko, a blower and the former head of Twitter’s security, for information, mostly regarding how the microblogging site determines which accounts are spam, according to a court document filed on Monday.
