In a company blog post yesterday, Elon Musk’s great social media experiment, X, (recently rebranded from Twitter), revealed that it is launching a lawsuit against online hate research group Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), alleging that the group has been “encouraging advertisers to pause investment on the platform” based on false and misleading claims.
“X is a free public service funded largely by advertisers,“ the company writes. “Through the CCDH's scare campaign and its ongoing pressure on brands to prevent the public’s access to free expression, the CCDH is actively working to prevent public dialogue.”
