Unbelievable! Elon Musk Twitter Silence Reaches 9 Days

Published on

Have you guys noticed that Tesla Billionaire; Elon Musk has been unusually silent on social media for more than a week?

Oh yes! Musk has been unusually silent on Twitter for 9days straight.
He hasn’t posted on his personal Twitter account leading many to wonder why the regular social media-accustomed CEO has gone silent amid his relentless bid to buy the Twitter platform.

The billionaire chief executive of Tesla Inc. last posted on June 21, as the most extended silence since October 2017. Normally a serial tweeter, he hasn’t gone more than six days without tweeting since January 2018, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of tweet data. Since then he has taken a few four-day breaks, most recently this past January, the analysis shows.

Musk’s break from Twitter follows a recent period in which he was especially active on the platform, with a steady flow of posts about the deal, in which he has talked about his criticism of the company and its policies as well as his plans. Of the 10 weeks with the most tweets from Musk since he joined the platform more than a decade ago, five have come since April 1. Musk’s large stake in Twitter Inc. became public on April 4, and he reached his deal to acquire it on April 25.

Elon Musk threatened to walk away from the deal earlier this month, claiming that the company breached its obligations under the merger agreement by “actively resisting and thwarting” his right to information on the spam and fake account data.

Twitter’s board has “unanimously recommended” that its shareholders vote to approve Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s $ 44 billion acquisition of the social media giant.

Musk recently surpassed 100 million followers on Twitter. Social media tracker SocialBlade shows Musk reached the milestone sometime between Sunday and Monday. Musk emphasized that he aspires to make Twitter an appealing system to use that is as inclusive as possible.

“Ideally I’d like to get like 80% of North America and perhaps, I don’t know, half the world or something ultimately on Twitter in one form or another,” he explained. “And that means it must be something that is appealing to people. It obviously cannot be a place where people feel uncomfortable or harassed, or they’ll simply not use it.”
