Court orders Twitter to provide more data to Mask
A US court has issued an injunction obligating the social networking platform company Twitter to provide more information and data about fake and fake accounts on the platform to billionaire Elon Musk, who made an offer to buy Twitter for about $ 44 billion before retracting it after that.
Bloomberg News reported that Judge Kathleen San J. McCormick of the Delaware Chancery District Court ruled Thursday that Twitter must provide information on about 9,000 accounts it has checked over the past year to see if real accounts are linked to ordinary people.
Twitter is trying to prevent Musk from obtaining this data, claiming to preserve the privacy of account holders.
McCormick said Twitter should “provide sufficient documentation to know how these 9,000 accounts were selected for review.”
Twitter faced an investigation by the US Capital Market Authority over how the fake accounts were calculated on the platform.
On June 15, the data review unit of the US Capital Market Authority sent a letter to Parag Agrawal, CEO of Twitter, to request details of the method used by the company in calculating fake and fake accounts, which it said represent 5% of the total accounts of subscribers.
This estimate became a key point in the dispute between the company and the American billionaire Elon Musk, the owner and head of the electric car maker Tesla, who made an offer to buy Twitter for about $ 44 billion and then backed out of the deal, claiming that the company did not provide him with accurate data on the fake and fake accounts.
