Elon Musk says he’ll pay the legal fees of anyone who’s been “unfairly treated” by their employer for posting on Twitter, according to a tweet sent late Saturday. The only problem? The billionaire owner of the site hasn’t made clear how people should reach out, let alone define what “unfairly treated” might mean.
“If you were unfairly treated by your employer due to posting or liking something on this platform, we will fund your legal bill. No limit. Please let us know,” Musk tweeted on Saturday night.
Musk, who’s known for making late-night tweets that may or may not materialize into company policy, did not send a follow-up tweet to explain the terms of who’s eligible for legal assistance.
Management at Twitter, which is technically known as X after Musk recently changed the name, has been a lightning rod of controversy ever since Musk bought the site for $44 billion back in October 2022. Musk’s first decision after taking control of the company was to fire thousands of people and even fired an engineer at the company who delivered bad news, according to a report from Platformer.
Twitter did not immediately respond to questions emailed Saturday night. I’ll update this post if I hear back.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
