Well, it already ranks pretty highly in Google search results, so it’s unlikely that Elon’s lawyers haven’t heard of the website. It has some page where it almost goes out of its way to say that it doesn’t bypass security measures like Nit

Right now, I can do about two searches on xcancel before it gives me the "instances have been rate limited" message. Then if I completely close out of my web browser, clear my web history from the last hour, and go back into my

A similar case Musk filed against an Israeli data scraping firm already got laughed out of court. https://www.reuters.com/legal/musks-x-corp-loses-lawsuit-aga... But I guess the nitter owner doesn't want to take a
