    I hope some big firm takes up the nonprofit just to be able to counter sue for payment. It’s a research firm. Detailed and thorough is literally their jobs.

    “Free speech absolutist, even if it’s speech you don’t like”

    “Hey, that allows hate speech”

    “WHAT!? HOW DARE YOU!”

    Why don’t we not respect his nouns and still call it twitter?

      I used to think like you, but someone mentioned that the more we call it X, which is a horrible name, the more the twitter brand loses its value - which is good!

      I uninstalled the app but I certainly don’t respect his verbs. Tweeting makes a lot more sense than Xing. Xing means “crossing”

    The Center for Countering Digital Hate has published several pieces of research that have been critical of Musk’s social-media company. One study published in June said Twitter had taken no action against 99% of 100 posts that the researchers said contained hateful content.

    In the lawsuit, Musk’s company accuses the Center for Countering Digital Hate of improperly accessing data from X’s platform by scraping and by improperly obtaining login credentials to a database operated by a vendor. The suit seeks a jury trial, monetary damages and a prohibition on the group and its employees accessing certain data related to the X platform.
