Judge Dismisses X Corp's Antitrust Allegations Against Global Advertisers

A U.S. judge has dismissed an antitrust lawsuit filed by X Corp against the World Federation of Advertisers and major corporations like Mars and Colgate-Palmolive. The lawsuit alleged illegal boycotting of Elon Musk's social media company. However, the court found no harm under federal antitrust laws.

A U.S. judge has decisively dismissed an antitrust lawsuit filed by X Corp, alleging that the World Federation of Advertisers, alongside major corporations including Mars, CVS Health, and Colgate-Palmolive, engaged in illegal boycotting against Elon Musk’s social media company.

Presiding over the case in a federal court in Dallas, U.S. District Judge Jane Boyle ruled that X Corp failed to demonstrate any harm resulting from the alleged boycott under federal antitrust laws.

The decision marks a significant legal victory for the defendants, as Musk’s company sought to challenge their collective actions against his social media platform through the legal system.
