With Elon Musk on the verge of taking over Twitter comes news that he plans to gut its workforce, with cuts of up to 75%.

Elon Musk said he was excited about his pending acquisition of Twitter, although he was overpaying for the social media company.

Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, said he was motivated to acquire Parler by his belief that existing platforms are too restrictive when it comes to user speech.

MoyaApp, with six million active monthly users in South Africa, is working hard to become as big as WhatsApp in the country, its founder tells TechCentral.

Parlement Technologies, the parent company of social media app Parler, said on Monday that it will be acquired by rapper Kanye West.

Elon Musk is being investigated by US authorities over his conduct in his $44-billion takeover deal for Twitter, the social media company said.

The lying, spin and misdirection Musk has attached to his Twitter bid might have been fun when he first hatched the offer, but a judge is looking now.

Elon Musk is running out of ways to evade his original $44-billion contract to buy Twitter.

Meta Platforms said it would notify roughly a million Facebook users that their account credentials may have been compromised.

Musk needs to secure an additional $22.4-billion of funds to cover the equity financing portion of his deal to buy the social media company.
