Elon Musk, the new CEO of Twitter, is not happy with leaks. Employees at Twitter have received yet another warning from him not to reveal proprietary material to the media or face legal repercussions. The employees must sign a pledge confirming their understanding, according to Musk.
According to Platformer’s report, Musk wrote to employees, “As evidenced by the many detailed leaks of confidential Twitter information, a few people at our company continue to act in a manner contrary to the company’s interests and in violation of their NDA.”
He added, “This will be said only once: If you clearly and deliberately violate the NDA that you signed when you joined, you accept liability to the full extent of the law & Twitter will immediately seek damages.”
The email from the richest man in the world stated that while occasional mistakes may be overlooked, “sending thorough facts to the media… would receive the response it deserves.”
Additionally, he requested that his staff members confirm that they understand the instructions by signing a pledge. They had until Saturday at 5 p.m. to do so.
A increasing number of lawsuits are being filed against Twitter on the terms of those terminations, and there is even a claim that Elon Musk illegally converted office space into dormitories so that employees may stay on-site.
“It’s very concerning that the richest man in the world thinks that he can walk all over employee rights and doesn’t have to follow the law. We intend to hold him accountable,” said lawyer Shannon Liss-Riordan.
One such lawsuit against Twitter is being led by Liss-Riordan; its central claim is that some employees are not receiving the severance and compensation that were promised to them before to Musk’s takeover.
