Twitter lawyer Alex Spiro sent Meta a letter, accusing the social media giant of stealing trade secrets with the role-out of its new app, Threads.
Meta told Semafor that Twitter’s accusations were "baseless."
"No one on the Threads engineering team is a former Twitter employee – that’s just not a thing," a source said. Twitter CEO Elon Musk weighed in on the controversy Thursday, tweeting: "Competition is fine, cheating is not." Threads, Meta’s text-based app seemingly intended to rival Twitter, went live on Wednesday, becoming available to users in more than 100 countries and millions signed up within its first hours.
But Meta's new app has also raised data privacy concerns, and is notably unavailable in the European Union.
