Musk’s attorney said that if for any reason the court doesn’t approve the lawsuit against “multiple fake Twitter accounts,” it will file a second lawsuit and all proceedings will begin.
Zatco’s attorney acknowledged receipt of the subpoena. Twitter has not yet commented on the news.

They said the social network has multiple security and privacy vulnerabilities that put users, investors and even US national security at risk. They also accused Twitter executives of misleading company executives and boards about their problems.
Zatko then criticized Zatko on Twitter, calling the company “wrong”. A Twitter spokesman said Zatko was fired earlier this year for “ineffective leadership and poor performance.”

But Mook’s Twitter account needs to prove the paper was intentionally false. The financial statements and such information materially misstate the information. Business”.
The $44 billion trial between Elon Musk and Twitter is scheduled for October 17 in a Delaware court. Both sides have submitted multiple petitions to the court against celebrities and tech companies. One of the witnesses the court sent to testify was former Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, a longtime friend of Musk.
