The verdict centers on tweets Musk posted during the $44 billion buyout process that the jury determined were deliberately misleading to investors. The case stems from a class-action lawsuit filed by Twitter shareholders who alleged that Musk’s social media posts during the acquisition period provided false or misleading information that affected their investment decisions.https://bizbriefcentral.com/2026/03/meta-acquires-ai-only-social-network-moltbook/Wed, 11 Mar 2026 19:10:58 +0000https://bizbriefcentral.com/2026/03/meta-acquires-ai-only-social-network-moltbook/What Happened Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has purchased Moltbook, a social media platform that operates entirely without human users.

The Tesla and SpaceX CEO faces allegations that his public statements before purchasing Twitter in October 2022 were misleading and caused financial losses for investors. The lawsuit centers on Musk’s communications during the period when he was negotiating the Twitter deal, which began with his surprise announcement in April 2022 that he had acquired a significant stake in the social media platform.
