Honestly, I think heās going to end up having to be talked down to a 15 billion dollar offering at least. 15 billion to buy with an investor having to spend another 5 billion to put out all of the fires Elon started there and another 2 to 4 billion to doing some serious upgrades for twitter to compete with the upstarts who got started specifically because they smelled blood in the water with how Elon was effing things up.
Itās still going to be quite the task to get the company profitable in 3 to 4 years.

The executive who spoke with the NYT are primarily concerned that revelations gleaned from the stolen code could empower future hacking efforts, either by revealing new exploits or allowing bad actors to access Twitter user data.
Those new API pricing plans are going well.
More seriously, David Pierce at The Verge linked to the DMCA takedown request. It looks like the account wasnāt active until January. Seems this wasnāt one of the accounts the company had been using which was still controlled by former Twitter developers, reported on in December.

If a source code leak enables access to user data you have some serious endemic problems. Probably ones youād find in due diligence.

Wouldnāt an āinverse startupā be a shutdown? Seems like Elonās expressing an unusually clear-eyed and honest view of the track Twitter is onā¦
