It appears in a letter from his lawyers, addressed to Twitter, where the company is accused of withholding information about the proportion of spam and fake accounts on the platform.
It is a “clear violation” of the agreement entered into by the parties and Musk “reserves the right not to complete the transaction”, the letter states.
The richest man in the world
Twitter has previously stated that the proportion of spam and fake accounts is less than 5 percent of the total number of accounts on the platform, while Musk has claimed that the proportion can in fact be four times as large. Therefore, he wants access to the company’s data and do his own analysis, according to the letter.
According to Forbes, the 50-year-old multi-billionaire Elon Musk is the richest man in the world.
