Twitter was ordered by a Delaware judge to give Elon Musk data used in its fourth quarter of 2021 audit of its active users, Reuters reported. Initially, Twitter said that this data didn’t exist and that it would be hard to collect it, however, Chancellor Kathaleen McCormick of Delaware’s Court of Chancery, gave Twitter two weeks to produce the data.
The data was sampled from 9,000 accounts during the last quarter of 2021 as part of Twitter’s process of estimating the number of spam accounts.
The judge didn’t give Elon Musk all the data he wanted. She said that he has data and documents needed to pursue his case.
“My overall impression is that plaintiff has agreed to produce a tremendous amount of information to defendants, and that the information plaintiff has agreed to produce is sufficiently broad to satisfy most of plaintiff’s obligations,” she wrote.
In an email to Reuters, Elon Musk’s attorney, Alex Spiro said, “We look forward to reviewing the data Twitter has been hiding for many months,”
Ahead of the trial starting in October, things have been heating up on Twitter. The crypto scam and bot account are still plaguing the platform and one verified user who has been vocally critical of Twitter’s bot problem while supportive of Elon Musk recently lost his verification status.
Andrea Stroppa was being targeted by hacked verified accounts and he took measures to protect his account which included changing his username. Twitter quickly revoked his verification and refused to grant it when he reapplied. Strangely, these hacked verified accounts continue to plague the social network along with the nonverified hacked and crypto scam/bot accounts.
Elon Musk replies to many of Andrea’s threads on Twitter and even follows him. One such thread was focused on raising awareness of Twitter’s lack of transparency on ad audits. Andrea pointed out that some companies perform audits for Twitter to verify ads on the platform. “Where are these audits?” he asked following up with how they work.
Elon Musk replied,
“Those are the questions that Twitter is doing everything possible to avoid answering.”

Tesla has extended its Bay Area ride-hailing service to include pickups and drop-offs at San Francisco International Airport (SFO). The update, shared via the company’s official channels on July 21, allows users in the region to request rides directly to and from one of California’s busiest airports.
The expansion builds on Tesla’s secured limousine permit for SFO operations. Public records show the permit became effective March 20, 2026, and remains active through January 31, 2027. Tesla vehicles operating the service now display authorized limousine permits issued by the City and County of San Francisco.

Tesla’s ride-hailing program in California relies on Model Y vehicles equipped with Full Self-Driving (Supervised) technology. Human safety drivers remain present in compliance with state regulations, distinguishing the service from fully driverless operations.
The Bay Area geofence covers a broad area spanning north of San Francisco to south of San Jose, offering extensive connectivity across the region.
UPDATE: Elon Musk reveals why Tesla didn’t say ‘Robotaxi’ upon California launch
This SFO addition follows earlier progress at other Bay Area airports. Tesla previously expanded service to San Jose Mineta International Airport (SJC) in late 2025. The company had engaged with SFO, SJC, and Oakland International Airport officials as early as September 2025 to secure necessary approvals for passenger transport.
The service provides a new option for travelers seeking electric, app-based transportation integrated with Tesla’s ecosystem. Rides are booked through Tesla’s dedicated ride-hailing application, which handles matching, routing, and payments. Pricing follows standard ride-hailing models, with potential adjustments based on distance, time, and demand.
Tesla’s California ride-hailing program launched in July 2025 with an initial invite-only rollout in the Bay Area. It started alongside operations in Austin, Texas, marking the company’s second major U.S. market.
The Bay Area remains a primary focus in California, with service centered on high-demand corridors connecting residential, commercial, and now major transportation hubs. This latest airport integration represents a practical step in Tesla’s broader mobility ambitions within the state.

Tesla’s reason for Starlink integration on Cybercab might surprise you, as the company’s Head of AI, Ashok Elluswamy, finally shed some light on the reason they are putting a satellite internet terminal on its ride-hailing-geared vehicle.
On Monday, Tesla officially confirmed that it would integrate Starlink V5 terminals into Cybercab vehicles, something many Tesla fans had figured the company would do, as the vehicle is primarily geared toward giving rides without any passenger intervention.

The ability to access the internet would allow riders to work or play in the car with their devices. It seemed like a more-than-reasonable feature to add to the Cybercab, which made its way off the production lines for the first time earlier this year.

However, the move is not for the rider, as Elluswamy confirmed on Monday night. Instead, it’s actually for Tesla to be able to have a constant connection to the cars in the Robotaxi fleet so it can troubleshoot issues, contact riders, or resolve other issues.
Elluswamy said:
“It is still not required for safe operation of the vehicle. Connectivity is primarily meant for navigation, customer service and, in general, fleet management.”

Many initially assumed the option of constant connectivity would be enabled on the Cybercab for passenger entertainment or work. With the Cybercab, passengers won’t be doing anything but enjoying the ride, so it seemed more than logical that they would be hanging out with Starlink internet access as an amenity.
However, Tesla’s primary concern with Robotaxi is safety, and nailing these first unsupervised rides is a crucial step to setting a good narrative on how effective driverless transportation can be.
Being able to get in touch with passengers or a vehicle if something is wrong is a crucial part of the overall experience, and preventative measures are being taken by Tesla to ensure a smooth process, even in the worst-case.
