Elon Musk's X Corp is suing a nonprofit organization over its claims about harmful content on the social media platform.
In a lawsuit filed in a California court on Monday, X Corp said that The Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) illegally scraped its servers and falsely described the platform as "overwhelmed with harmful content."
Musk's company said in the suit that the center had been running a "scare campaign to drive away advertisers" by illegally accessing data and cherry-picking posts that supported their claims.
