I guess most of the posts are deleted but here is some content

quote:

“I waited around all weekend while grimes coddled her boyfriend for being too stupid to know not to go on twitter on acid,” Banks wrote, concluding that “it was probably some weird threesome sex poo poo to begin with.”

That dark reference to Musk tweeting while on acid seems to refer to a Twitter thread Musk wrote at the beginning of August announcing his intention to take Tesla private “at $420.” “Funding secured,” he tweeted. It’s an open question whether Musk was being serious or whether he was making kind of a labored weed joke, but as Select All pointed out, if he was serious, his tweet could be seen as a manipulation of the marketplace. That would make it illegal. Musk wrote a blog post clarifying that no final decision had been made about Tesla’s future, but the Securities and Exchange Commission is reportedly investigating.

According to Banks, the investment issue was a major topic of concern at the Musk residence while she was there. “I saw him in the kitchen tucking his tail in between his legs scrounging for investors to cover his rear end after that tweet,” she said in an interview with Business Insider, during which she also clarified that she was at Musk’s home from early on Friday through Sunday night. “He was stressed and red in the face.” She added, “He’s not cute at all in person.”

I doubt that people can easily claim damages based on false endorsement or whatever, but the idea of a bunch of rich people going after musk legally is still p. neat.

I don't know why anyone thinks this is actionable for an endorsement fraud lawsuit. There is no endorsement, or use of celebrity likeness to fraudulently promote a product. It's a check mark on a bad site that Elon decided to simply give out for free to any of his users of notable following count.

Sure but the affirmative defense of "this is a normal way users talk to each other, with decades of history, making safe harbor provisions applicable" has a better chance in court than "our CEO thought it was a good way to make people buy our product"
