> We estimate that the average of false or spam accounts during the fourth quarter of 2021 continued to represent fewer than 5% of our mDAU during the quarter. However, this estimate is based on an internal review of a sample of accounts and we apply significant judgment in making this determination. As such, our estimation of false or spam accounts may not accurately represent the actual number of such accounts, and the actual number of false or spam accounts could be higher than we have currently estimated.
Not a native English speaker so maybe I'm just not understanding it correctly. Since mDAU are a subset of DAU, probably a tiny subset of it, wouldn't that statement mean that way way less than 5% of DAU would be bots?
In a situation like this there is a very strong implication that you're talking about the intersection of the sets 'bots' and 'mDAU'. To talk about the raw number of bots vs. the raw number of mDAU would require very explicit wording to override that implication.
> Musk waived due diligence when he moved to buy the company, seemingly to hasten the acceptance of his bid.
> He wrote in a letter to Twitter Chairman Bret Taylor on April 24, "As we discussed, $54.20 has been and will remain my best and final offer, period. This is binary – my offer will either be accepted or I will exit my position."
> Twitter announced the company had accepted his offer the next day.
> But in the weeks that followed, Musk vocally criticized Twitter during media interviews and on Twitter, where he has tens of millions of followers.
By waiving due diligence, Musk has put himself into situation where it is entirely his responsibility to establish the existence of material false information, and no one else's opportunity to help, short of required discovery should he file a lawsuit establishing a legally cognizable claim.
