A poll by Tesla CEO Elon Musk has found out that nearly 65% of his followers do not believe in Twitter’s claim that less than 5% of daily users are fake/spam on the platform, economic times reports.
Musk, who is fighting a bitter legal battle with Twitter over the cancellation of the $44 billion takeover deal, started a Twitter poll last week among his 102.8 million followers on whether Twitter’s claim of less than 5% of daily users is fake/spam.
While 35% said Twitter is telling the truth, nearly 65% believe that this is not the case and the number of fake accounts is much higher.
Musk claims that if Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal can prove the actual number of fake accounts, then the terminated deal can still happen.
