Meanwhile:
Musk dares Humza Yousaf, former 1st minister of Scotland, to sue and calls him a 'super-racist scumbag' in public row - He’s previously clashed with the X-owning billionaire — and laid into him again in recent days after Musk pushed inaccurate claims about riots that have swept Britain - Speaking at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival Thursday, Yousaf described the X owner as “one of the most dangerous men on the planet” because of his “amplification” of disinformation.
Hitting back at Yousaf’s comments Friday, Musk claimed Yousaf, the Scottish-born son of first generation Pakistani immigrants, “loathes white people.”
“He is super, super racist,” Musk tweeted in reply to a speech Yousaf made in 2020 about structural racism in Scotland. “Scotland gave him everything and yet he loathes white people.”

Musk threatens to "out" Yousaf as a racisist with DM convos which would be in discovery if Yousaf did sue
Begs the question how does Musk know what's in they DM convos in first place - which is easily answered DMs aren't "invisible" on X - only verified user's/businesses can enable full DM encryption
@DavidSalo indeed it does

This sounds like a whole lot of projection. Musk's experimentation with racism and antisemitism is a matter of public record, and no doubt he's much more vicious in private than in public.
But it also shows that any communications using Musk-owned platforms are insecure and will be abused by him for his own advantage: a basic betrayal of the whole concept of online communications.
