Elon Musk’s X just filed a major antitrust lawsuit against two companies and four individuals who organized an illegal advertiser boycott against X.
The CEO of X, Linda Yaccarino, posted a video on X explaining their antitrust lawsuit. In the video she said that the House Judiciary Committee exposed how “a group of companies organized a systematic illegal boycott against X.”
She said X has filed this antitrust lawsuit against Global Alliance for Responsible Media and the World Federation of Advertisers.

Rumble has announced they are joining this lawsuit against these companies:
Google just found out that they can't rig the search market to exclude their competitors anymore.
And soon a cabal of advertisers and agencies will find out that they can't arbitrarily engineer a boycott of Rumble & X.
We've joined @X to sue them, and we'll see them in court.

Elon Musk responded to Rumble’s CEO by saying they’ve tried to play nice for 2 years. “Now, it is war”:
We tried being nice for 2 years and got nothing but empty words.
Now, it is war. https://t.co/MEzH0vqz0p
