    Do it elon, I bet you don’t have the balls. You’re not a real man if you don’t sue. Prove us just how much money you have, spend billions on lawyers! Demand that Zucc forfeits Meta to you in compensation. Do it.

    From the article:

    Meta launched Threads, a text-based conversation app intended to rival Twitter, on Wednesday to a largely positive reception.

    This “largely positive reception” links to their own article about their own reporter checking it out, which doesn’t mention any opinions from the public or other individuals.

    The claim is they used Twitter “trade secrets”. What could those possibly be? The concept is obviously not a secret. Unless they used Twitter’s algorithm or something I don’t see how this doesn’t get thrown out immediately.

    This whole clown show is reminiscent of fake rapper beefs, which conveniently take place right before both parties are dropping (usually) mediocre albums.

    Weren’t these two about to have some bullshit boxing match? And now they’re suing each other? I hope this all turns out to be a jump-the-shark moment for both these parasites.

    I thought in house lawyers were fired? I guess Elon is using the firm for his other companies.
