After buying just under a tenth of Twitter a month ago, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX is finally the new owner of the platform. Why does the world’s richest man want to take control of one of the most popular social networks of the moment?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Elon Musk<\/a><\/strong> has long been one of the most active users on Twitter.<\/a><\/strong> His account is one of the most mediatic of the moment, both for the exclusive information he provides about his companies and for the polls and comments he releases. Now, in addition to being popular on the network, he has taken full control of the platform for 44,000 million dollars.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Twitter is a social network with several magnitudes smaller than others in terms of number of users, but with an influence and an ability to set the agenda like no other. The topics that are debated on this application are widely disseminated in the media. No other platform achieves so much interaction between politicians, journalists and institutions of all kinds.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I hope that even my worst critics remain on Twitter, because that is what free speech means<\/p>\n
