a racketeering lawsuit filed Tuesday in federal court in San Francisco against Twitter Inc., the Kingdom and a number of co-conspirators that include two former employees of Twitter who allegedly supplied confidential personal information about Twitter ...
According to the complaint, the defendants were part of a racketeering enterprise that operated to target and retaliate against supposed Saudi dissidents, including the plaintiffs, for speaking out against the Kingdom and its royal family.
The complaint alleges that in 2014 and 2015, two employees of Twitter, Ahmed Abouammo and Ali Alzabarah, accessed confidential information of more than 30,000 Twitter users -- including their names, birthdates, IP addresses and other private information -- and provided it to individuals acting on behalf of the enterprise.
Alzabarah lived in San Bruno and worked at Twitter as a"site reliability engineer," maintaining Twitter hardware and software. The fundamental purpose of the scheme, according to plaintiffs, was to gather intelligence on anonymous Twitter users critical of the Kingdom and the Saudi royal family"so that the [enterprise] could terrorize and punish people into silence."
According to the complaint, when Elon Musk purchased Twitter on Oct. 27, 2022, the Kingdom"rolled over" its existing investment into the 'New Twitter" and today is the second-largest shareholder after Musk. His sister alleges that Abdulrahman's confidential personal information was in the material provided to the enterprise by Abouammo and Alzabarah.
She has also petitioned the U.S. Department of State and her local county and state representatives for assistance.
