The reason big companies pull shit like this is they have all the money in the world and know the normal people they target do not usually have the massive amounts of money to cover litigation costs.
This fuckers need to brought down by any means necessary. Much respect for the man who filed this suit. I hope he takes them to the cleaners.
Seems to be a valid prima facie claim of defamation, it's about time that social media to be held accountable. The trick will be overcoming the Section 230 barrier.
Typically, the passive nature of a website bars defamation lawsuits. The plaintiff will have to show that Twitter stepped outside of the traditional editorial function of removing user-submitted content. The plaintiff will accordingly argue that Twitter's publishing of its reasoning, i.e., the defendant is a hacker, constituted a second, non-traditional function, more akin to a user function, and thus outside of the scope of 230. It'll be interesting to see how this turns out, it could open the door to more lawsuits against Twitter.
Will not matter soon. Big Tech's monopoly will never be challenged if Trump get's his way in repealing 230.
If you support Trump, either clearly explain his plan for protecting alt-tech, or admit he's betraying you.

Thanks!
Unfortunately, it's now gone. Dismissed for lack of diversity jurisdiction, I didn't realize this was a Delaware-on-Delaware suit.
The fucker they posted this banned me here, hypocrisy at its finest these right wing nozzles crying censorship.
