Twitter's board of directors has accepted the deal. On April 25th, Musk was officially acquiring Twitter for $44 billion. In regards to the implication that they were conducting shady conversations in the Signal app, Musk's lawyers cited that Jack Dorsey, the former CEO of Twitter, had a conversation with board chair Bret Taylor in the Signal app. This was in response to Twitter lawyers saying that there was a missing text message between Elon Musk and Oracle Chairman, also a co-investor in the Twitter deal, Larry Ellison. Musk defended himself by saying that there was no proof that they destroyed evidence.

There were also talks about a conversation concerning EU regulatory approval. Twitter's lawyers claimed that the message mentioned Morgan Stanley, a financial services company, and Marc Andreesen, an investor and software engineer.
