Apparently, the latest stunt Elon is pulling, is.  He has started up a poll, which he will allow to vote him out of the chief of twitter job.

In a poll to his 122 million followers, he tweeted: "Should I step down as head... I will abide by the results..."

--- Quote ---A civil suit normally concentrates upon whether what is done injures the person bringing the suit in any way.

Well feel free to correct me, but if someone has been injured then surely the person causing that has been naughty.

Sorry, I didn't necessarily mean a physical injury---it could be an injury to the reputation, or financially.
Even a physical injury may be due to an accident, but the person or corporate body being sued is alleged to have contributed to it.

That is very different from an assault, where the cops will probably charge the alleged assailant.

IANAL (I'm not a lawyer, but I may well be "anal". ;D)

Well the fun is over.  Looks like Elon met his middle eastern financial backers at the World Cup and they told him to step down as CEO.

But it was illegal to use the info to make a new book reordered by phone number to locate an address and name from a phone number.

Why would that have been illegal? Until Caller ID came out, there wouldn’t have been any need for reverse phone lookup. But land-line caller ID not only showed the caller’s number, but name as well!
It really wasn’t until digital cellphones, where caller ID inexplicably doesn’t support sending the caller name, that reverse lookup even became necessary, and clearly compiling that data into a reverse lookup is not illegal, or there wouldn’t be reverse lookup websites.

Who seriously would want to take the job as Twitter CEO while Musk is still the owner? You can only loose here.
