taanegl,

If this is a way for Musk to dodge getting his ass beat by Zuckerbot 3000 at the coleseum he’s got another thing coming.

lemmyshmemmy,

Tired of hearing about both of them, especially Musk. Like Trump, he wants and uses the negative attention.

totallynotarobot,

Imagine my disappointment that this does not appear to be the slap fight originally proposed, just in a courtroom. Legal battle booooring.

Cl249099,

Wait. No. Stop… Anyway

saltesc,

Oh, I’m all for this 🍿

Everyone’s a winner! So long as they’re in the spectator area.

Disgustoid,

I can’t believe I’m rooting for Zuckerberg over that walking shitstain Musk here. WTAF.

Yerbouti,

It does feel weird.

Chainweasel,

It’s like watching two people you hate fight, Wait it’s actually exactly that.
Anyway, I’m not rooting for anyone to win, I just want to see a good bloody match where both sides get some good hits in and lose some teeth.

answersplease77,

Was Threads behind Twitter’s login close off and server attack or whatever the heck happened to it? It completely killed Twitter

Cqrd,

No, many suspect that’s caused by Musk not paying his Google cloud bill and his services being downgraded as the first step Google takes when they want a customer to pay them.

Musk put up the login only view of Twitter and immediately caused Twitter’s own DDoS because that screen would keep trying to load tweets even though it couldn’t, repeatedly and very quickly.

Musk also blamed this on data scrapers, but people see the timing of this as too coincidental for it not to be the Google cloud thing.

w00master,

Elon has nothing on this. I’m not rooting for either but this threat doesn’t have much legs.

maino82,

Spiro’s letter complains about Meta hiring some of the many workers who were laid off or resigned from Twitter in the eight months since Musk bought the company.

“Over the past year, Meta has hired dozens of former Twitter employees… these employees had and continue to have access to Twitter’s trade secrets and other highly confidential information,” Spiro wrote in the letter to Zuckerberg. The workers, he alleged, “owe ongoing obligations to Twitter,” and many “have improperly retained Twitter documents and electronic devices.”

“We fired a bunch of people and you hired them to build the same thing they built for us! Not fair not fair!”

The workers, he alleged, “owe ongoing obligations to Twitter,”

What a strange argument. If I work for someone, and they fire me, I still have ongoing obligations to them?

Great, I’ll expect my paycheck to be deposited as usual, then.

kofe,

I’m curious if it’s referring to NDAs maybe? That would imply some form of obligation to maintain secrets I guess. Otherwise yeah, makes no sense to me

totallynotarobot,

Funny story - many paycheques were not, in fact, deposited.

HobbitFoot,

Really, the only way X Corp. has any way to get Meta to stop would be on anti-trust grounds, which would be hilarious.

Hoping they settle this in the ring.

Goun,

It’s finally happening! We did it, Lemmy!

I’m rooting for a long drawn out fight.

Wait… that sounded really american, didn’t it. Maybe I should ship lawyers to both sides.

mytornadoisresting,

Awesome. They can stay busy fighting each other while we happily go on without them over here on the fediverse.

FartsWithAnAccent,
@FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world avatar

I’m just worried this could result in a ruling that will fuck up the fediverse somehow.

kartonrealista,
@kartonrealista@lemmy.world avatar

Eh, I don’t think any one company can own the concept of microblogging. If Twitter and Tumblr both existed for a long time and there were no lawsuits then this is just a nothing burger, no?

FartsWithAnAccent,
@FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world avatar

In any sane world, yeah almost definitely.

bionicjoey,

Never discount the possibility of American courts deciding something which is horribly damaging for the world of technology.

noodles,

yeah, this feels like a walking advertisement for the fediverse.
