The deal was approved by the shareholders of the company.

The decision was made on a conference call with investors.

Peiter Zatko testified in front of the US Senate.

The company was sold to Musk in April.

The deal fell apart after Mr Musk alleged that he was misled about the number of accounts on the platform.

He said he didn't want to purchase the company in May, but that's not true.

Less than 5% of its daily active users are bots, according to the social media platform. Mr Musk thinks it could be more.

It's worth $32 billion, which is less than the $44 billion offer from Musk.

The shareholders gave the company the go-ahead to pursue Mr Musk in court after the vote.

They are going to meet in front of a Delaware state court. A judge will make a decision on whether or not Mr Musk has to buy the company.

The Senate Judiciary Committee heard testimony from a whistle-blower before the shareholder decision.

The firm's former head of security said that the social networking site was a decade behind. The claims that Mr Zatko was fired are not true.

Mr Zatko supported Musk's claims that the platform has more fake accounts than it has admitted.

The judge said last week that Mr Musk's lawyers could use the testimony of the whistle-blower.

It was mostly focused on national security issues, and not connected with Mr Musk's attempt to pull out of the deal to buyTwitter.
