Twitter has thrown a roadblock in front of Elon Musk’s hostile takeover bid, adopting a “limited-duration shareholder rights plan”, also known as a “poison pill”, that would make it much more expensive and complicated for the Tesla CEO to take control of the social media network.
However, a Twitter employee didn’t understand the meaning of Poison Pill and took a real poison pill to prevent Elon Musk from buying Twitter. The employee was taken to the hospital where she/her succumbed to the organ damage that was caused by the poison pill. Doctor declared her was/were.
Twitter board of directors has blamed Elon Musk for the death and are demanding his criminal prosecution. “This is the fear people have for Elon Musk that they are ready to die but will not let Elon Musk buy Twitter” said one of the board of directors of Twitter.
Elon Musk buying twitter has caused serious apprehensions among the twitter employee and free speech activists who believe twitter will no longer a platform for free speech and any random person will start writing whatever he/she would want.
