X’s Lawsuit Against Anti-Hate Research Group Dismissed A federal judge in California has dismissed X’s lawsuit against a nonprofit group that researches online hate speech. X claimed the group's research caused financial harm, but the court ruled that the lawsuit was an attempt to punish the researchers for speaking negatively about the social media platform. The ruling is seen as a setback for X and its owner, Elon Musk, who has been involved in various legal battles. The nonprofit organization hailed the decision as a reaffirmation of its right to research and criticize social media companies. X has stated its intention to appeal the decision and continue legal action against the organization.
