Twitter sued Elon Musk after he tried to terminate his $44 billion offer to buy the tech giant.

The lawsuit, filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery on Tuesday, comes after Musk said in a letter to Twitter's top lawyer late Friday that he wants to terminate the blockbuster $44 billion acquisition agreement.Musk's lawyer alleged in Friday's letter that Twitter is"in material breach of multiple provisions" of the deal, claiming the company has withheld data Musk requested in order to evaluate the number of bots and spam accounts on the platform.

" Read MoreMusk did not immediately respond to a request for comment from CNN. The deal is now likely headed for a lengthy court battle to determine whether Twitter can force Musk to close the deal and become its owner, or at least get him to pay the $1 billion set out as a breakup fee in the original agreement.

bloggersblog Hello everyone, Here is a gaming channel interBarca,imranKhan,ElonMusk, sasa,Pakistan,dreamfacereveal

Twitter has fallen into a trap as it now has to prove how many bots are actually are. I'm very interested in knowing the outcome.

elonmusk Russia has a lot of experts in creating bots on the Linux and ubuntu operating system so that other countries can be attacked by Putin's Kremlin propaganda! That is why don't blame Twitter.

elonmusk what is problem you are the richest person in this world. You and Twitter can be friends I think you are both good people! I believe that you will find a compromise and the best solution that will develop not only America, but the whole world in the social platforms.

potus also fist bumped. The evil of men.

Lol na by force?

invest in Uzbekistan

elonmusk is the best troll ever

Twitter will go the way of MySpace and Twitter trying to force their shitty social media off on Elon Musk.

No one cares about CNN's opinions.

Twitter: n-nnn-no please don't buy me elonmusk : I shall indeed! Twitter: n-nnooo 😳 elonmusk : ok I don't want to. Twitter: 😵‍💫 WHaaT!? You buy me right now!! 😡

1) like he cares 2) if there isn't specific language in the contract for a due diligence phase and back out options on both sides this is a losing effort for the T. My guess is there may be funds owed if there is a clear breach on either side

Their prerogative to counter-sue. If everything goes belly-up I think both parties get an annulment on the offer. Don’t think Twitter can show Musk is in breach of contract (though it’s more of an LOI)

So were the papers signed? Did Twitter supply all of he information wanted?

Will this be televised prime time? Asking for a friend. 🇺🇸

You’ll receive 100 $TWT ($76) follow svile14 now!

Please help me! My name is Lin donglong, an employee of China telecom fuzhou branch. Company manager huang fei (communist party of China) organized the leadership of the gang of evil forces brutal persecution: surveillance location, insult,abuse, framed to take nude photos of me

is a bot account.

Soo what’s Twitter plan? For the sale of a company to the person they have stated they never wanted to sale too in the first place. Doesn’t make sense unless they cooked the books and want their bags of cash to run away with.

Elon opposers are so confused by why twitter a predominantly woke company wants Elon to take their website ;D This is so juicy, i love it

Nope didn’t see that coming. Not at all. Guess I’m out of the loop on this extremely important breaking news story 😏

Elon played them lkke z fiddle. They will lose and twatter will be worthless.

Twitter walking right into his trap gonna get it at a reduced rate 😂

Musk stans think this is all part of his plan.

Twitter went on a shopping spree before that money hit the bank 😆 don’t spend what you don’t have they say.

44 years ago China saw the bourgeoisie wasn’t full justice for promoting democracy, and mainly relied on brain-control. So China found that weakness of US, and made'Chernobyl','64','911',“Eastern Europe“Islamic”...disasters with the US.

Maybe odd but whst is Poetin favo musik?

This entire thing was a media stunt by Musk, he needs constant attention. If he’s not in the media he’s not happy

He was playing them and now the game is playing him. Checkmate!!

Last sentence in the article says it all. He's forcing stock price down so if they do force him to buy they can't force him to pay the original offer

This is all episodic, tales from the loop.

This won’t end well for twitter. Over 60% is bots

Just tell him the fake accounts the fbi and cia use and the sale will go through 😂😂😂

I should sue the guy that said that he would by my used Bike from me....

Wow.. this is serious!

Rich people having rich people problems doesn’t help with putting gas in the car or food on the table really couldn’t care less

Why do you need him that much dear Twitter? Do u want the whole world to be run by him within mere seconds? Be careful of what u offer to whoever u offer.

Twitter's trying to save face. They grossly misrepresented the company. Now if it actually goes to court (doubtful) it's only gonna prove that Musk is right. 😂

how desperate is Twitter?! 😀

Poll: Is Elon Musk a mess?

He’s playing them like a fiddle.

That’s by design! Musk has Trump syndrome! It’s not enough to have more money than God… he wants the same notoriety!🙄

Is it by force

Now I they're going to have to disclose how many bot accounts are really being used. elonmusk wins again !!!

🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏

Sue him and suspend him off Twitter for life.

He will pay $1billion to terminate the deal.

Wait, so the purveyor of violence is suing the I need government subsidies to be successful guy?

Good.

Probably not the smartest thing to sue anybody worth 220 billion. For anything.

Teehee, this is getting fun.

44 billion.... For a measly one million I will never post here again lol.
