Much like Facebook did to MySpace, Threads is here to offer social media fiends something new but similar to the endless scrolling apps they already know and love. While far from perfect, many users are relishing the opportunity to watch Elon Musk’s $44 billion investment sink.has revealed that Alex Spiro working on behalf of Twitter sent Meta a letter with a rather bizarre accusation – that Meta hired engineers who used to work at Twitter.
The lawyer continues by alleging that Meta assigned these employees to develop Threads. Meta is also instructed to immediately stop using any Twitter trade secrets as well as preserve documents related to the hiring of former Twitter employees. While employees could share secrets about places they used to work, that’s sort of the risk you take when you. Of course companies can make employees sign a restraint of trade agreements but if these are seen as unreasonable by a court, they are tough to enforce.
