The war of words between Twitter owner Elon Musk and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg took place on Sunday. Elon Musk mocked Mark Zuckerberg in a tweet, writing, "Zuck is a cuck." This comes only days after Mark Zuckerberg launched the Threads app, a competitor to Elon Musk's Twitter.
Musk's latest remark was made in response to a screenshot of a Threads post by fast food chain Wendy. Wendy made fun of Musk and tagged Zuckerberg, saying, "hey @zuck, you should go to space just to really irritate him lol." Notably, Elon Musk's company SpaceX is involved in space exploration and aims to reach Mars in the near future, thus the fast food company Wendy's made a snide remark. Meta’s Chief replied to Wendy's post on Threads with a laughing emoji.
Recently, Elon Musk threatened to sue the Meta platforms and even sent a message to Zuckerberg via his Twitter lawyer, Alex Spiro. According to the letter, Zuckerberg's business engaged in "systematic, willful, and unlawful misappropriation of Twitter's trade secrets and other intellectual property."
The letter reportedly said, “Twitter intends to strictly enforce its intellectual property rights, and demands that Meta take immediate steps to stop using any Twitter trade secrets or other highly confidential information.”
Musks’ lawyer also accused Mark Zuckerberg’s company of appointing some former Twitter employees to make Threads, who reportedly “had and continue to have access to Twitter’s trade secrets.”
Andy Stone, Meta spokesperson, denied reports of Meta hiring former Twitter employees to make the Threads app. Adam Mosseri, an American businessman and the head of Instagram, said that Threads was made to establish friendly conversation.
Earlier, Musk challenged Zuckerberg to a battle. Subsequently, Zuckerberg answered, "Send me location." UFC President Dana White confirmed that they would fight soon. He said that Musk and Zuckerberg are "absolutely dead serious" about fighting.
