X’s globe-trotting defense of ads on Nazi posts violates TOS, Media Matters says | X allegedly ignored the chosen venues in the TOS when filing "thermonuclear" lawsuits.


X allegedly ignored the chosen venues in the TOS when filing “thermonuclear” lawsuits.

They've asked the court for an injunction blocking X's litigation outside California, which they claimed represented X's "vendetta-driven campaign of libel tourism" attempting to bleed MMFA dry by forcing them to raise defenses in foreign cities. And it "does more than simply drive up costs: It means that Media Matters cannot focus its time and resources to mounting the best possible defense in one forum and must instead fight back piecemeal," which allegedly prejudices MMFA's "ability to most effectively defend itself." More recently, Business Insider cited independent data sources last month who similarly concluded that while X's advertiser pool seemed to be increasing, its ad revenue was still "far" from where Twitter was prior to Musk's takeover.
