X has sent cease-and-desist letters to Nitter, the open source project behind privacy-friendly X front ends, demanding its instances and code repository be taken down over alleged scraping.
From Nitter Matrix chat (quote formatted by me for Markdown parsing):
basically, it demands that I:
Permanently take down nitter.net and the GitHub repository, and delete all “X Data” in both
Stop all use of the “Twitter” and “X” marks
Cease all access to X data, including copies
Delete all X account credentials and session tokens 5. Confirm compliance in writing within three business days
The claims asserted are breach of X’s Terms of Service, Developer Agreement and Developer Policy; the Texas Harmful Access by Computer Act; and the Lanham Act. It threatens litigation against me personally. X states it has also sent notice to GitHub and to my domain registrar.
