Elon Musk's own data scientists couldn't find many bots on Twitter, and he hid that crucial information, the company says
. Twitter has sued to force him to complete the acquisition and the case is heading to court in Delaware in October.
Twitter's lawyer went on to accuse Musk's legal team of intentionally withholding the data during the court battle, saying they had only just been able to view the documents as of Tuesday, despite seeking them since the early days of the lawsuit. This may be a dicey argument because 11% bots is still significantly higher than Twitter's own estimates. Musk's legal team declined to comment.for ditching the deal has centered on his claims that Twitter intentionally misled him, investors and the public about the number of authentic accounts on its platform, or those operated by a single human user. Musk claims this amounts to fraud and allows him to walk away from the acquisition cost-free.
