From the beginning of the acquisition negotiations until the completion of the transaction, Musk and Twitter have dominated the news cycle. The current one is Apple’s alleged threat of banning Twitter from the App Store. There is no evidence of it, but that is what Musk has to say. However, the former UFC champion, Tito Ortiz, couldn’t care less about the big dispute and made Musk aware of his wish.

The SpaceX CEO tweeted about Apple threatening to ban Twitter from the App Store. To which Ortiz replied by urging Musk to introduce the ‘EPhone’.

The Billionaire entrepreneur earlier tweeted that if Apple and Google ban Twitter from their platforms, he’ll be left with no choice but to come up with an alternative. And Tito Oritz appears to be rooting for the idea enthusiastically.

The Feud between Apple and Musk

All the information regarding the feud is coming from directly from Musk himself. No official statement is made by Apple Inc. or any of its officials on the matter. However, according to Elon, the tech juggernaut has ceased spending on Twitter advertisements. Considering a good little chunk of Twitter’s revenue comes from Apple’s advertisements, this could be a big concern.

And looking at the current scenario of all the conflicts, the Tesla CEO’s claim of introducing an alternative smartphone sounds very possible. Besides, for a man who makes electric cars and rockets for a living(for the most part), making a smartphone that rivals iPhone and Android should be achievable. May not necessarily be easy, but can’t be impossible for Elon Musk. And former UFC champion Tito Ortiz has already given him the thumbs up for this. Therefore, Elon Musk has backing for this endeavor as well.
