That’s what Twitter said in a statement responding to Elon Musk’s announcement that the deal to buy the company is on hold. He claimed it “cannot move forward” until he has more information on spam and fake accounts on the platform. The latest filings show that Musk did not do any due diligence on the platform before inking the deal. 

Something very fun: We’ve been meaning to host a fun get-together with our splainer fam for a very long time. Something to help us get to know each other—and have a really good time. So we are hosting our first ever online pub quiz this weekend—on Saturday, May 21 at 5:00 pm. It will be hosted by our books editor Anushree Kaushal—who is also an awesome quiz master. Don’t worry—the questions won’t be all about books lol! So sign up to join us for an hour of uncomplicated mazaa on Zoom. A beer in hand is entirely optional! Coming next: An in-person splainer birthday party in Bangalore!
