Elon Musk is sending lawsuits against ‘X’ only to Tarrant County courts. Here’s why

North Texas courts will hear lawsuits against Elon Musk’s social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.

Musk has updated the company’s terms of service to direct any disagreements among users of the social media site to the U.S District Court for the Northern District of Texas or the Tarrant County court system.

The change was first revealed last month as part of a broader series of changes to X’s privacy policy and terms of service.

The social media company’s headquarters were recently relocated from San Francisco to Bastrop, Texas, which is close to Austin yet is located in Texas’ Western District.
