Just to clarify for those who don't catch it in the article: Mudge's whistleblower complaint predates the Musk/Twitter feud entirely.

Where do you see that info in the Verge article? All I can see is "he filed last month" (which would be July 2022) - the month Musk "officially" backed out and at least a month after he started doing the "I don't want Twitter any more" dance.

> John Tye, founder of Whistleblower Aid and Zatko's lawyer, told CNN that Zatko has not been in contact with Musk, and said Zatko began the whistleblower process before there was any indication of Musk's involvement with Twitter.

"Zatko was fired by Twitter in January and claims that this was retaliation for his refusal to stay quiet about the company’s vulnerabilities."

That doesn't cover whether or not he had contact with Musk and when he started the whistleblowing process.

he got canned right after the Jack departure.

This is an important point, but why is the media picking it up just now? I guess both sides are starting the usual shit-flinging…
