Elon Musk’s X sues research group highlighting hateful tweets

X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, has sued a group of researchers, alleging their work highlighting an increase in hate speech on the platform cost the company millions of dollars of advertising revenue.
The suit, filed late on Monday night in US District Court in California, accuses the nonprofit Centre for Countering Digital Hate of violating X’s terms of service by improperly collecting a vast amount of data for its analysis.
