@@tomahawk8890 Not about code. They're not even built using the same code languages. Elon says Meta stole "trade secrets" from former twitter employees - even tho no former twitter employees worked on Threads, and Elon won't say what they supposedly stole.
This is a pretty common practice in Silicon Valley. Almost all tech employees have worked for multiple tech companies. Also, it's freaking FB/Meta, I don't think they need to steal Twitter's ex employees to make a social media app.
AND they didn't... There is no secrets from Twitter, at least none probably other than the ones they open sourced ("the algorithm", Mr. MUSK). "No ex-twitter employees were employed in the making of this social network."
Laid off 50% of the employees, and then gave an ultimatum that caused another 50% leave -- leaving him with just 25% of the original headcount who are almost all H1B workers who don't have the option of leaving. And he calls it poaching when other companies quickly snatched up those employees. 🤣
Not only fired. But publicly made fun of them and belittled them on the platform that you fired them from. Calling them " useless". If they're so useless then why are you upset that Meta hired them Elon?
Thread now will track and see everything on your phone. It's in the agreement you accepted without reading. Better not have any bad OR NASTY info on your phone or computer, Threads can collect data such as a user's location, their personal information, financial information, health and fitness, messages, photos and videos, files and documents, calendar events, and more
Not a lawyer, but my understanding is as long as you are not violating trademarks or patents, there is no violation. Its hard to think, any of twitter architecture components actually made it to the threads app platform. Meta already has infrastructure to serve content at scale through facebook and instagram and does it without any outages.
Meta has already stolen the “threads” trademark from a small Uk tech company lol they’re going through a lawsuit with that also. Seems like these big companies don’t care to innovate anymore and just strong arm the little guys.
Doubtful that Meta would use any meaningful source code or other resources lifted from Twitter; these two companies operate different apps with differently coded infrastructures. As far as the "concept" or overall design of Twitter: let's not pretend that online bulletins, chat rooms and message boards are a new innovation. These ideas are arguably over 30 years old. Imagine a convenience store suing a gas-station for stealing the "brilliant" idea to sell cigarettes.
So employees who work for Elon can never use their skills as developers anywhere else? wtf lol? How out of touch is this guy? These people dont have a non compete they were fired. If Elon thinks twitter should be a monopoly he needs to lay off the weed.
Non-competes really shouldn't be legal imo. If you don't want your employees working for a competitor, you should do more to retain them rather than ban them from working for competitors.
Why musk didn’t sue truth blue sky and etc they all copy twitter. musk scared threads already have 30M downloads in 24hrs😂😂. Musk going to lose lawsuit
When did reporters start using the first name a public figure who doesn't even know they exist? To do so is embarrassing, cringe-inducting, and just so unprofessional. Greater objectivity is in order.
why it matters? we used to call our president-elect by name (and not even his first name but a ... variation of it). names used to identify the person in question. if first name or nickname is sufficient, why are you crying over this simple thing? as if his name is a slur or something.
He's already lost tens of billions. I think Twitter has lost 90% of its value since he bought it for $40 billion and he's had to sell billions of dollars worth of Tesla stock to cover those losses 🙃
Why the hell would you wish for him to lose billions of dollars, that's a very disgusting thing to wish upon someone who didn't inflict harm upon others, and is just doing business!!!! You are very arrogant and disrespectful, there's no need to say that and think like this!
I can't help but wonder if it's wrong for me to do so, but I want to root for both sides here. To me, the perfect outcome in this dust up would be if they devour one another, then we can all get a breath of fresh air.

The vast majority of active Twitter users have been those who are vocal in politics, activism, and to a lesser extent media. I suspect the left in this group of people will begin moving to Threads which means you have a subset of a subset of people using Threads. This is not a product that will appeal to the masses or those on the right. The question will be whether they can monetize what I suspect is an audience of 50-100 million active users at most. That's not small but it's nowhere near the size of platforms like RUclips, TikTok, and Facebook proper.
@@annawalsh1904 you didn't need to tell us you're a far leftist. Twitter's daily active users increased substantially since Elon Musk purchased Twitter last year.

it's available anywhere else. EU probably needs to regulate it and then it will become available. it works for me in Ukraine (which is Europe but not the EU). twitter does not work in Ukraine because Elon banned our country phone code so we can't access twitter any longer.

Good. If Musk take them to court he can explain why he didn't take Trump to court for doing the same thing with his joke of a copycat
I'm pretty sure that's because actual Twitter code is rumored to have been reused and that code has protected rights in that it belongs to Twitter.

Oh Elon will happily pay for lawyers. But when it comes to rent, servers, employees he cheats out as hard as possible.

cry me a river Elon, it's a free market, if your product sucks, we look for a different one.
When your product is a trivial reimplantation of technologies that date back to the 80's, you don't get to call others "copycats".
