Elon Musk said Friday that his plan to buy Twitter for $44 billion is temporarily on hold as he tries to pinpoint the exact number of spam and fake accounts on the social media platform. Musk, who has been vocal about his desire to clean up Twitter's problem with spam bots that mimic real people, appeared to question whether the company was underreporting them.
