In April of this year, Musk announced that he offered Twitter $44 billion to purchase the social media company. The deal was set to go through until Musk investigated and suspected that many of the users on Twitter were nothing more than bot accounts. After he hinted that he was getting cold feet, Twitter took legal action and Musk ended up going through with the deal. The billionaire Tesla founder has appointed himself chief executive officer and it's being reported that he plans to reinstate all the accounts that were previously banned.
