   #Bluesky, which directly competes with Twitter, hired Twitter employees & all 3 Board members worked at Twitter. Bluesky clearly relied on Twitter IP, confidential information, & possibly TS, to accelerate its development. The attraction to its users is that it is basically a copycat clone of Twitter - but Musk has never made a peep about it. And never will.

   That should tell us something very important about Bluesky.

     The letter from Twitter's lawyer to Meta over Threads is comically bad. There's no substance, just a vague claim that Twitter employees Elon fired had some sort of dark magic in their brains about how to make a microblogging service.

     Erin Conroy repeated this.

     It's also yet another reason why Musk is unlikely to ever prevail in any misappropriation claims against #Meta for #threads.

     Musk never objected to such misappropriation by #Bluesky & clearly consented to the use of any proprietary info or TS that Jack & his employees acquired at Twitter.

     As an aside, it's so predictable that Quinn Emanuel would rep Musk in this ridiculousness.
