I'm confused as to why the amount of bots means much to Musk in this deal. I know he mentioned that he wants to eliminate them which is an admirable goal but as to the methodology to discern which account is a bot account versus a real person isn't exact which is what the current CEO admitted to in a thread. The whole idea of just taking a sample of 100 twitter accounts and testing them may not be the best option to make that determination. If Musk was serious about the bot issue then he should be happy to throw a few million at the problem independently rather than waiting for Twitter Inc to do the same job. Absent his move to purchase Twitter, there's nothing stopping him from building up that analysis. He's just using it as a smokescreen, in my opinion, to get out of the acquisition.
