    Sorry Elon, but…

    I’m fairly sure you don’t get to axe most of your staff, refuse (illegally) to pay their severance packages and then sue another company because they hired your now, ex-employees, on the grounds that it’s stealing from your company…

      I hope he does go through with the lawsuit, it would be hilarious. I’m hoping for a ship of theseus argument.

        I’m hoping for a mask-off “I paid them once so I own them forever” argument.

      Twitter is apparently also struggling to pay for all the individual arbitration claims they forced their ex-employees to engage in rather than a class action, yet now they want to take on a lawsuit against Facebook? Do they honestly think they can come out ahead here?
