, Spiro said Twitter is concerned that Meta has misappropriated its trade secrets and other intellectual property.
The letter claims Meta over the past year has hired dozens of former Twitter employees – a group that happens to be fairly sizable after Elon Musk last October acquired Twitter and proceeded to lay off roughly 3,700 employees orAnyway, the letter contends that these former employees had access to confidential company information,"owe ongoing obligations to Twitter", and"improperly retained Twitter documents and electronic devices.
"With that knowledge, Meta deliberately assigned these employees to develop, in a matter of months, Meta's copycat 'Threads' app with the specific intent that they use Twitter's trade secrets and other intellectual property in order to accelerate the development of Meta's competing app, in violation of both state and federal law as well as those employees' ongoing obligations to Twitter," the letter says.
