Nothing about Twitter’s acquisition has gone smoothly since April 2022, when Musk announced his buyout offer, along with his intentions to introduce new features, make the algorithms open source and promote free speech. The deal almost fell apart over the prevalence of computerized “spambots” that automatically spread spam across the platform, but it finally closed just before Halloween.
