Twitter Launches Legal Action Against Meta

Competition is fine, Cheating is not! – That’s what Elon Musk said before the company plans to take legal action against Meta.

Twitter’s parent company X Corp has launched proceedings against Meta over the Twitter clone app, Threads, with X Corp accusing Meta of poaching ex-Twitter employees, as well as ‘systematic, wilful and unlawful misappropriation of Twitter’s trade secrets and other intellectual property.’

As per the filing –

“Twitter intends to strictly enforce its intellectual property rights, and demands that Meta take immediate steps to stop using any Twitter trade secrets or other highly confidential information. Twitter reserves all rights, including, but not limited to, the right to seek both civil remedies and injunctive relief without further notice to prevent any further retention, disclosure, or use of its intellectual property by Meta.”

Threads is a clone app of Twitter, hence, Twitter Launches Legal Action Against Meta.

X Corp’s filing is more about ‘trade secrets’, which is a bit more vague, as well as data usage, but it’s hard to see how any of these elements have played a part in Threads’ development.
