Elon Musk has taken ownership of Twitter. Musk immediately removed the company’s top leaders. But no one knows exactly what the billionaire businessman will do with the social media service. The bird is freed, Musk wrote on Twitter after he completed his $44 billion takeover of the company on Thursday. He was making note of Twitter’s logo, which is a small blue bird. The closing of the deal ended months of uncertainty surrounding the influential service. In April, Musk offered to buy Twitter for $44 billion. Musk said at the time that his goal was to shape the service into a place for free speech. Three months later, he withdrew his offer saying Twitter did not provide him with enough information about the number of false, or fake, accounts. Twitter then opened a legal action, or lawsuit, to force Musk to complete the deal. A judge in the state of Delaware ordered Musk and Twitter to complete the deal by Friday.
