Parag Agrawal

Elon Musk has paused his bid to buy Twitter due to questions over bots. The artificially-operated accounts are now at the heart of the proposed deal's latest controversy. The software is so commonplace that tech giants such as Meta, Google and Twitter have teams devoted to banishing bots, while cybersecurity firms sell defences against them.

In another part of undercover recording released by American far-right activist group Project Veritas, Twitter employee Alex Martinez can be seen criticising company’s woke ideology, while alleging that the company puts the "correct" views in front of people. He also mocked Elon Musk's development disorder.

Twitter says in its account of its deal negotiations with Elon Musk, the Tesla owner opted out of asking the questions about the social media company's business he has now cited in declaring the $44 billion acquisition is "on hold."

Elon Musk said on Tuesday his $44 billion offer would not move forward until Twitter Inc shows proof that spam bots account for less than 5% of its total users, hours after suggesting he could seek a lower price for the company.

Twitter's chief Parag Agrawal defended the messaging platform's battle against "bots" that aspiring buyer Elon Musk says vex the platform, only to have the billionaire respond with a poo emoji.

Elon Musk stoked speculation that he could seek to renegotiate his takeover of Twitter Inc., saying a viable deal at a lower price wouldn't be "out of the question."

Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal today posted a thread on spam amid Tesla boss Elon Musk's proposed acquisition of the microblogging website.

Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal says that the deal with Elon Musk is expected to be closed, however, the deal does not become an excuse to avoid making important decisions for the health of the company, adding that Twitter needs to be prepared for all scenarios and always do what's right for it.

Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal has posted a detailed thread on the recent changes in his team and why he effected them at a time when the micro-blogging site is set to be acquired by Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

Twitter has confirmed that two senior executives are heading for the exit and it has paused most hiring, as Elon Musk stands poised to become the global messaging platform's new owner, according to a company spokesperson.

A move by Andreessen Horowitz to join Elon Musk's bid for Twitter Inc. threatens to create a conflict for firm co-founder Marc Andreessen, who sits on the board of social-networking rival Meta Platforms Inc.

Elon Musk will reportedly become Twitter's temporary CEO after closing his $44 billion takeover of the social-media firm, according to a person familiar with the matter. Parag Agrawal, current CEO, is expected to remain in his role until the sale of the company to Musk is completed.

Parag Agrawal is estimated to receive $42 million if he were terminated within 12 months of a change in control at the social media company, according to a report.

Twitter Chief Executive Parag Agrawal sought to quell employee anger on Friday during a company-wide meeting where employees demanded answers to how managers planned to handle an anticipated mass exodus prompted by Elon Musk.
