Elon Musk dreams up a new way to squirm out of his $44 billion Twitter acquisition agreement
his agreement to buy Twitter at no cost. Twitter sued Musk in July, saying he is legally bound to purchase the company for $44 billion and Musk's true reason for backing out was worry over his personal fortune being affected by a downward turn in financial markets. The company also recently claimed thatshow he was thinking about getting out of the deal in early May, just a few weeks after he agreed to buy it.
As for Zatko, a hacker turned security expert, he spent only a year working at Twitter. The company claims he was fired earlier this year for performance issues and that all of the concerns he raised about security were investigated when he was still with the company. Zatko's lengthy disclosure to Congress claimed Twitter suffers from unchecked and"egregious" security flaws that he was told to withhold or temper the seriousness of in presentations to the company's board.
