#Musk wanted Mars, but #Mars didn't want Musk 💔

Pretty ironic wouldn't ya say?

Guess we can also keep boycotting Big Tech in peace, y'all ;)

Elon Musk's X advertising boycott lawsuit dismissed by US judge

US District Judge Jane Boyle said the company had failed to show it had suffered any harm under federal competition laws.

Earlier today I read an article somewhere else about this verdict. It said the case was thrown out because Twitter failed so state an actionable claim under anti-trust law, for the simple reason that no *consumers* were harmed. That contradicts the 3rd paragraph of the BBC report.

@TheLancashireman I think Arstechnica?

It's a bit confusing, not sure tbh 😅

Maybe something for a #legal expert?

I don't think the Ars Technica article is the one I read, but it has the same quote from the judge:

"Without consumer harm, there can be no antitrust violation"
