Twitter/ X

Effective Nov. 15, all federal lawsuits against X must be filed in the Northern District of Texas, where a judge owns Tesla stock and has heard several lawsuits involving Elon Musk.

The judge, Reed O’Connor, in Fort Worth, Texas, has rejected calls for him to step down from the high-profile case Musk filed against Media Matters, a watchdog group.

Musk said he would also move his rocket company, SpaceX, to Texas.

After a report from Media Matters showed advertisements from major brands appeared next to antisemitic posts on X, the company sued the media watchdog group and its reporter. The Texas Attorney General’s Office plans to investigate the nonprofit for potential fraud.

The state attorney general says fake accounts on Twitter harm Texans’ ability to rely on the service. Elon Musk has said he wants to buy the company, but he’s also concerned about what he says are a large number of spam and bot accounts.

Twitter has said bots and fake users represent less than 5% of its accounts, but Paxton says the percentage may be higher. The inquiry comes as Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who is in negotiations to buy Twitter, is also raising questions about the number of fake accounts on the platform.
