Spiro, who is acting on behalf of Twitter parent X Corp, claims that Meta has hired dozens of ex-Twitter employees over the last year. He claimed the company "deliberately assigned" them to work on Threads "with the specific intent that they use Twitter's trade secrets and other intellectual property in order to accelerate development of Meta's competing app." He argued this violates state and federal laws as well as those employees' obligations to their former employer. In addition, Spiro said Meta is prohibited from scraping Twitter data relating to who people follow.

Oh, cry me a river. Dude fired a bunch of folks, Meta swooped them up, looked at their experience, then asked them to work where their experience is relevant.

Musk 100% did this with other people working in the auto industry. He hired folks from other auto and tech industries, and he hired folks with relevant experience in similar tech.

Fuck this guy.
