.AshaRangappa_: Elon Musk's reign of terror over Twitter is getting noticed by the FTC. This should concern him.
, many of which are more legal than technical in nature, it’s hard to see how a rank-and-file engineer would be in a position to adequately certify Twitter’s products. In fact, one former member of Twitter’s legal department sent a letter to current employeesthat this burden shifting will “put a huge amount of personal, professional, and legal risk onto engineers.”
Musk’s personal lawyer reportedly stated that Musk was “willing to take on huge amounts of risk” and “isn’t afraid of the FTC.” But he should be.For one thing, the FTC has the upper hand when it comes to enforcement in the current arrangement. After all, the agency doesn’t need to launch a lengthy new investigation into Twitter at this point; it simply needs to bring a court action alleging that the company is in violation of the consent decree’s terms, which it can do fairly quickly.
Second, an enforcement action by the FTC could create a vicious downward spiral for Musk. Apart from any fines the company might incur, the FTC could further modify the consent decree to add even more safety, compliance and reporting requirements than it has now.
