These types of clerical errors are easy to make. SpaceX workers likely assumed they owned the property. They own the two adjacent lots. It took cards against humanity more than 6 months to even realize it was happening.
SpaceX responded with an insulting low buyout-or-get-fucked offer so they lose any benefit of the doubt here. They should be assumed negligent by default at best.
I mean that's what they said, but given the wild vitriolic tone they're using in their blog post here I don't exactly trust their particular presentation of the facts.
This reminds me of Shahzad "Raja" Chaudhry, the Texas political candidate who dumped a bunch of waste on some land he owned causing water and soil pollution impacting his neighbors and claimed agriculture tax breaks dishonestly.
Lmao that statement of "but has also said it will “accept Twitter.com in compensation.” " like not ever using the X name but "dead naming" it will really bother elon.
Surprised no complaint about dumping spacex property on the land.
It's plausible that they're saying they'd accept the twitter.com domain in compensation, not the X platform.
Soon enough, if X.com doesn't restart using it, "Twitter" will be considered abandoned as a trademark, and someone owning the twitter.com domain could do whatever they wanted with it.
In the legal filing yes spacex putting their stuff on the property is a main complaint. The lawsuit alleges trespassing, destruction of the pristine state of the property, and reputational damage. No idea how well the suit will fare but it certainly appears to have some merit.
