Elon Musk has clinched a deal to buy Twitter for 44 billion US dollars.
The deal will shift control of the social media platform used by millions of users and global leaders to the world's richest person.
It's understood the company will now move into private ownership by Mr Musk, who owns Tesla.
To see how this might impact New Zealand users, Māni Dunlop spoke to social media commentator Vaughn Davis.
