Twitter is a social networking site and an online news site where people communicate in short messages called tweets. Tweeting is posting short messages for anyone who follows you on Twitter, hoping that your words are helpful and interesting to someone in your audience. Twitter is easy to use and free to join by creating your account. Twitter is also used as a marketing mechanism, Social networking tool, etc. Twitter has become one of the most used social media platforms because it is both personal and rapid, and Celebrities use it to build an emotional connection with their fans.

Twitter on Monday accepted Elon Musk’s Bid to take over the company. The Tesla Chief executive promised new features and reiterated his push to soften Twitter’s stance on content moderation. He said he looks forward to making it better than ever with new and advanced features. Mr. Musk often portrays himself as a “Free speech absolutist,” He means that which matches the law. This deal would give control over the social media network to the world’s Richest man, who is also among its most influential users. Mr. Musk intends to take Twitter private as part of the deal. He has been vocal and very clear in his criticism of the platform’s policies on moderating content, arguing that needs to be an open forum for free speech.

If the takeover occurs, it would be marked as one of the most significant acquisitions in tech history. It will likely have global repercussions for years, possibly shaping how billions of people use social media. Twitter employees reacted to the prospect with enthusiasm, fear, and humor. People who function for the social-media network try to forecast their future at a company owned by an unpredictable billionaire.

In a series of tweets, Jack Dorsey, co-founder and former CEO of Twitter, endorsed Mr. Musk’s plans to enhance twitter that can be “maximally trusted and broadly inclusive” and shared his vision for Mr. Musk’s stewardship of the company. Mr. Dorsey wrote he doesn’t feel that anyone should own, control, or run Twitter. He wants to be a public good at a decorum level, not a company. Solving the problem by being at the company and Elon is the excellent solution whom Mr.Jack trusts. He said he believes his mission is to extend the light of responsiveness.

Twitter has spent years promoting healthier discourse on the platform, bolstering its content moderation to limit what it identifies as online abuse. Some employees expressed the opposite view. One said employees take the mission of serving the public conversation seriously, and Mr. Musk’s free-speech absolutism is counter to that mission.

Donald Trump’s account was terminated permanently last year in the wake of the 6 January riots at the Capitol building in Washington. But even if his Twitter ban is reversed, Mr. Trump says he does not plan to return to Twitter, instead opting to use his platform, Truth Social. “I am not going on Twitter; I will stay on Truth,” Mr. Trump told Fox News. He added that he believed Mr. Musk, a “good man,” would “make improvements” to the platform.
