Please don't cite the lawsuit for the information if you're going to push this narrative as the lawsuit is written to be favorable to the accusers.
The bot thing was a sub narrative, not the main reason for buying Twitter.
From page 3:
>One of the chief reasons Musk cited on March 31, 2022 for wanting to buy Twitter was to rid it of the “[c]rypto spam” he viewed as a “major blight on the user experience.”
From his TED talk in Vancouver on April 14:
>"A top priority I would have is eliminating the spam and scam bots and the bot armies that are on Twitter," Musk said during the event. "They make the product much worse. If I had a Dogecoin for every crypto scam I saw, we’d have 100 billion Dogecoin."
From his twitter on April 21:
>If our twitter bid succeeds, we will defeat the spam bots or die trying!
Also from page 3:
>In his press release announcing the deal on April 25, 2022, Musk raised a clarion call to “defeat the spam bots.”
