Lawsuit Alleges Ex-Twitter Exec Fired for Security Concerns and Budget Cuts

Former head of security for Twitter, Alan Rosa, has filed a lawsuit against the company, Elon Musk, and adviser Steve Davis, claiming wrongful termination for protesting cost-cutting measures that hindered Twitter's ability to comply with regulatory demands. The lawsuit alleges that Davis, hired by Musk, immediately began cutting Twitter's products and services that supported compliance with the FTC Consent Decree. Rosa objected to these cuts, which included security applications and programs needed for law enforcement requests, and claims he was fired without reason or notice. This lawsuit follows previous legal disputes involving mass layoffs and refusal to pay for arbitration.
