Who wants to bet one of the arguments he wanted to use was "Twitter doesn't exist anymore, I run a platform called X, therefore well don't need to honour any Twitter contracts "

So far Elron's excuse is basically "well, I had my fingers crossed"

Would something like that not be possible as a private company, essentially dissolve and make another? (Not just rename it)

Of course for that to work at all, all the employees would have had to sign new contracts.

And all of this please probably would have had to happen at purchase time (edit)

Probably still not possible even then if everything was done perfectly.
