If Musk can prove their speech is based on maliciously cherry-picked examples and that it caused financial harm to his companay, of course he can sue for damages. They keep their freedom of speech, but not freedom from consequences.
In his ruling, the judge even suggested that X/Twitter’s litigation had chilled other types of research into disinformation online. He pointed to a recent survey of 167 academics and researchers that “found that over 100 studies about X Corp. have been diverted, stalled, or canceled, with over half of those interviewed citing a fear of being sued by X Corp. over their findings or data.”
The case was dismissed, because obviously. The case never had a chance of succeeding, the whole point was to create a chilling effect to make other people hesitant of criticizing him.
It wasn’t about Musk making someone pay the consequences for misrepresenting the truth. It’s entirely about the “free speech absolutist” using paper terrorism to silence criticism.

Sorry, your boy isn’t what he says he is.

‘tortious interference’
Musk is a wart on Pinocchio’s nose. I feel no pity for him after all the lies he tells.
Many of his haters are his own kind of people envious that he climbed on the gravy train and they didn’t.
