Nitter: Update Oct 10th seeking funding and legal help!
X Corp sent C&Ds on Aug 24 & Sep 8 demanding permanent takedown of all Nitter instances + the repo.
The Sep 7 update claiming legal representation was based on false assurances: no counsel in place rn.


zedeus on HN: "I was misled by an individual who claimed to be helping the Nitter project pro bono with a team of lawyers. He made up a timeline of events that sounded mostly believable".

Looks like a bad-faith actor already tried to insert themselves into the situation: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50043135
They're seeking real funding & legal help now!
