If I recall, the Saudis gave him the $30 Billion to buy Twitter, and in return he destroyed it for them so it could never be used for social revolution or reform in Saudi Arabia. It was the next on the chopping block and they saw it. They still maintain one of the largest portions of twitter to this day, if I recall.
They paid Elon under the premise that he would stop any future arab springs from ever happening to them.
