Elon Musk said that Twitter should put more effort into tackling bots and spams on its platform and not in serving subpoenas to his friends
Musk’s friend David Sacks has already lost a bid to quash a Twitter subpoena because of his controversial tweets aimed at the micro-blogging platform
The tweets included an image of a middle finger, as well as a video of a man urinating on a subpoena
Sacks, CEO of Craft Ventures and member of the “PayPal mafia”, lost his appeal after being subpoenaed by Twitter for his correspondence with Musk, according to court documents
Gary Black posted on Twitter that Musk needs to be very careful not to disrespect Twitter counsel or the court as “Judge McCormick is a no-nonsense judge with a gift for wicked prose
Judge McCormick will tear Elon apart if he shows disrespect for the court. See Friday’s ruling on David Sacks subpoenas”, she added
Musk replied: “Read the actual ruling. We had zero to do with David Sack’s response. Zero”
The Tesla CEO further said: “If Twitter put as much effort into bot/spam removal as they do into subpoenas, we wouldn’t have this problem in the first place!”
