X placed the ads next to hate speech.

But San Francisco-based X says in its complaint filed in federal court in Fort Worth, Texas, that Media Matters “knowingly and maliciously” portrayed ads next to hateful material “as if they were what typical X users experience on the platform.”

X's complaint claims that Media Matters manipulated algorithms on the platform to create images of advertisers' paid posts next to racist, incendiary content. The juxtapositions, according to the complaint, were "manufactured, inorganic and extraordinarily rare."

You are an ally to evil.

Yes i knew Musk is suing.

X still placed the ads next to hate speech.

X's complaint claims that Media Matters manipulated algorithms on the platform to create images of advertisers' paid posts next to racist, incendiary content. The juxtapositions, according to the complaint, were "manufactured, inorganic and extraordinarily rare."

I can't see that that matters. If it can be manufactured it can be captured and exploited by competitors. It doesn't matter if it's rare unless it doesn't happen.

Media matters showed that it does.

You are an ally to evil.
