Please, please do that. I can’t wait to see the discovery portion of the trial

Elon used to love saying he was a Free Speech Absolutist, but once again that only extends to speech he likes.

The response from CCDH is savage -

It's a shame that people are still using that platform.

Evidence based documentation is going to be hard to win against, unless the plan is just drag them through legal proceedings until they can't afford it. The american dream.

For a company that claims to be desperate to cut costs they sure do have a lot of money for frivolous lawsuits...

Does Stinky believe that by suing these researchers, the rise in hate speech didn't happen?!

The man-child billionaire says he is not for censorship, while using the judicial system to censor.

We don’t need to call it X or even the platform formerly known as Twitter. It’s just Twitter.

This is a great example of a SLAPP suit

Sue everyone you don't like. That's the thin-skinned, narcissistic billionaire way.

Doesn't matter if they're right or wrong, pile up the costs and they'll all cave in.

I think Elon's rebranding from "twitter" to "X, The Social Media Platform Formerly Known As Twitter" was really smart. You know what, I am gonna go XTSMPFKAST-eet that right now! Obviously the branding was the weakest part of the product he bought!

Free speech absolutist.

If they go to court, wouldn't the court make them prove that the claim was false or defamation? And if CCDH can prove that it's not false or defamation then now it's legal record that hate speech has increased since the takeover? This all seems ok with me.

Wasn’t he all about free speech and even against censorship?

“ I think if you go down the censorship route, it’s only a matter of time before censorship is turned upon you.” -musk

Musk should sue himself then. Seems like he has done the most to drive away advertisers.

“Free speech for me, not for thee”. God, I’m THIS close to deleting my account there and just migrating back to Tumblr and bluesky. There are just too many users I love that haven’t moved anywhere else yet.

He is the forefront of apartheid theory and sees anyone not espousing it a threat to his existence.

Stop giving Musk free publicity. Don't post or upvote Musk spam.

Edit Not posting Musk spam on Lemmy does not mean there's no accountability. What Musk wants is for idiots like you to keep upvoting his daily bullshit and doing his marketing for free.

Driving ur attention to here:

X is a free public service funded largely by advertisers. 

X aware that the CCDH gained access to X’s data without Brandwatch’s authorization,
