Doomed to Fail: The Limits of Musk’s Case Against the WFA

X Corp. (formally “Twitter”) has sued the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA) and a number of member companies for orchestrating an illegal boycott of Twitter. X Corp. v. World Federation of Advertisers. The complaint asserts that it is “an antitrust action relating to a group boycott by competing advertisers of one of the most popular social media platforms in the United States.”  The lawsuit premise of this (forcing advertisers to do business with a floundering company using antitrust law) is absurd, and should not survive summary judgment (initial motions).
