Twitter and Elon Musk: The deal goes sour

BBC World Service - Tech Life, Twitter and Elon Musk: The deal goes sour

What happens now Elon Musk wants to pull out and how damaged will he and Twitter be?

Elon Musk says he's pulling out of buying Twitter but Twitter is taking legal action to make sure he does. What happens next now the year's biggest tech deal has gone sour?

As Twitter launches legal action to compel Elon Musk to complete a takeover he says he now wants to stop, Silicon Valley tech reporter James Clayton and New York business correspondent, Michelle Fleury join us to take stock of how what was meant to be the biggest deal in tech has turned into the industry's biggest row instead. Tech Tent also speaks to Carl Pei as he launches the Nothing One and attempts to shake up the smartphone market. China analyst Kerry Allen tells us about screen time for Chinese children being strictly limited over the summer holidays - and why Heardle fans are unhappy about it being bought by Spotify.
