A nonprofit organization that researches links between social media, hate and extremism has been threatened with a lawsuit by X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
In the letter, attorney [for Twitter] Alex Spiro questioned the expertise of the researchers and accused the center of trying to harm X’s reputation. The letter also suggested, without evidence, that the center received funds from some of X’s competitors
Is this enough for a countersuit?
Then Mr Musk said: “my dad can beat up your dad!” and ran away to knock over the bicycle of one of the researchers. Then everyone got ice cream.
If you mean a countersuit for libel, then no. Anything said as part of a court proceeding is immune from libel lawsuits.
Awwwww.
Makes sense but that is such any easy way to get things into the press with legal protections…
True, but remember it’s not libel if everyone assumes you’re lying.
