Government mandated ad-buys don’t sound very “free speech” to me.
Doesn’t sound “free market” either.
I mean, he’s got no leg to stand on. This isn’t even just a free speech issue, it’s a compelled speech issue. You can’t force people to use your platform just because you’re mad it’s losing popularity.
Let’s take this to the conclusion he wants… advertisers are now forced to put ads on shitter: “Elon Musk is a little piss baby…brought to you by Carl’s Jr”
Honestly, I’d respect this but might have the intended effect of people coming back to twitter to see the ad.
Yeah at most he could try for breach of contract if they broke their contract to leave. But if they already were no longer under contract or they could prove material cause to break the contract then there’s not much he can do.

Neat. I’m going to sue Tesla for not giving me a free car!

Fetch should not happen, but this should.
This lawsuit is the latest in a string of largely unsuccessful legal actions taken by Musk.
What a poor excuse for a human being.
First amendment for me but not for thee.
Yup. Musk literally told advertisers to go fark themselves, advertisers said:
And now, Musk is mad that they left. Any judge will toss this lawsuit immediately.
Sounds kind of like I Hate You, Don’t Leave Me.

overpays for twitter, reduces revenue, increases legal costs… doesn’t sound like business genius
I don’t know that “advertise on my platform or I’ll sue you” is going to work any better than “go fuck yourselves” when it comes to attracting advertising revenue to your website.
I hope they argue in court that he told them to go fuck themselves, so they followed his orders…much like the famed warship of old.
Those advertisers should just run anti Trump and Musk ads.

Elon Musk is a Pedo, so buy a General Motors vehicle not Tesla.
its kinda fun watching a piece of shit human being trip over himself, landing square on his own face.
a delight!
I’d like the official GARM (defendant) response to be “Go fuck yourself”.
How does this guy’s mind work? To first think this’ll work, and then a second time after his lawyers said it doesn’t work like that.
When was the last time he listened to anyone besides the voices in his head?
the one place that you can express yourself freely and openly —
Unless you are trans or care about trans issues or are even curious about gender identity issues or if you are against Musk personally or against nazis or conservatives(same thing) or against spreading misinformation or deep fakes with politicians in them or just plain old conspiracy theories. I mean, other than that stuff and a lot more, you are totally free.
