Elon Musk officially owns Twitter, but his plans for the social media platform remain incoherent.
Musk and Twitter closed the $44 billion deal Thursday, one day before the Oct. 28 deadline set by Delaware Court of Chancery judge Kathleen McCormick earlier this month, and staves off a legal battle between the two that increasingly appeared to not be going in the Tesla CEO’s favor.
General counsel Sean Edgett, who led Twitter’s legal team that pushed Musk to reverse course again and agree to see the deal through just days before he was to be deposed, also got the boot. The Twitter account of Ye, the former Kanye West, became publicly visible again on Friday for the first time since he was suspended earlier this month for posting grossly antisemitic messages that sparked a spiral of brands cutting ties with him and the announcement that he would buy conservative social media company Parler .
WeChat started as a messaging app but now includes tools for banking, shopping, food delivery and more everyday tasks. Its diversification, as well as severe limitations on the operation of international social media services within China by its government, brought the app one billion daily active users, according toBut building a similar app in the current U.S. mobile space, much less social media specifically, presents a far more complex problem.
