New Delhi: Tech billionaire Elon Musk is known for his eccentric and unconventional moves, some of which have left his followers and opponents confused and puzzled. Now, he has made a new move by offering $1 billion to Wikipedia if they change their name to "di*pedia." He shared a common Wikipedia page that reads, "Wikipedia isn't for sale. A personal appeal from Jimmy Wales." He also asked the company if they could add the emoji of a pig and poop to his wiki page.
When one user suggested that Wikipedia could do it since they could always change it back after they collected the money, Musk clarified that the offer must be for a minimum of one year.
The post has gone viral with a total of over 11.2 million impressions and a total engagement of 11.5k likes, 17.6k retweets, and 120.5k likes.
