Since Elon Musk's acquisition of X (formerly Twitter), the company has faced over 2,200 arbitration claims, as revealed in court documents. X, in the midst of transitioning from a social media platform to an "everything app," is dealing with legal challenges stemming from terminations and alleged breach of promised severance payments. Former employees initiated a lawsuit, accusing X of hindering arbitration by not covering initiation fees. The dispute centers around the $3.5 million arbitration fees, with X contending it's not obligated to pay. Legal battles continue amid Musk's vision of transforming X into a comprehensive app.
