An Australian business is the latest in an ever-growing list of companies taking Elon Musk's Twitter to court over alleged unpaid bills after the US billionaire paid $US44 billion for the social media platform last year.
They can mean cash flow problems. In Musk's case, it may just be leverage. Just like Trump, he knows that he's the bigger guy, when dealing with contractors. They can swallow the loss or fight it in court.
If it's planned, he should be prosecuted for theft, however, as always, it's considered a civil matter and he's protected by the corporate veil.
If he ever goes to prison we should let him keep a connection to the internet so he can continue to embarrass himself for our amusement, sorta like Andrew Tate when he got people from the outside to compose increasingly unhinged tweets for him (shout out to when he claimed he was fighting ghosts in his cell, because he was being haunted???).
Yeah, I'm totally amped to see him pop up in a "worst of tech" article a few years from now. "How do you destroy a wildly successful social network used by millions of people, including celebrities and politicians? Just add Musk!"
