X Corp., formerly known as Twitter, filed a lawsuit in San Francisco federal court against a nonprofit organization that monitors hate speech and disinformation.
, filed in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, accuses the Center for Countering Digital Hate of orchestrating a"scare campaign to drive away advertisers from the X platform" by publishing research reports claiming that the social media service failed to take action against hateful posts. The service is owned by the technology mogul Elon Musk.
The lawsuit was filed just hours after the CCDH revealed that Musk's lawyer, Alex Spiro, had sent the organization a letter on July 20 saying X Corp. was investigating whether the CCDH's"false and misleading claims about Twitter" were actionable under federal law. "The CCDH's independent research won’t stop — Musk will not bully us into silence," Ahmed said in closing.
