I think Elon is trying to say they're stealing IP because lots of the Twitter employees he fired went to work on Threads. This is probably where the fediverse stuff comes in clutch, as they're just implementing ActivityPub, so it's not like it's industry secrets or anything.

Yeah, people have suggested they believe Meta would/did use Twitter code. I don't know why they would... Meta already has IG, which is set up almost exactly like Twitter, and if anything they could imitate code from Mastodon.
