Elon Musk's Lawsuit Against the Center for Countering Digital Hate

Following Elon Musk's ownership of Twitter, now called X, the platform experienced a decrease in advertisers. X filed a lawsuit against the nonprofit organization Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), alleging that CCDH's hate speech tracking reports led to the loss of millions in advertising revenue.
