A simple Google search renders this untrue. Ayyadurai has denied several times his lawsuit has any connection with Thiel:

- danso 10y agoSorry I didn't mean to phrase that they refuse to admit or deny. Editing post. (Or not, too late)
- CalChris 10y agoHarder lawyered both the Hogan and the Ayyudurai cases. Ayyudurai is welcome to use his free speech rights to say whatever he wishes. I believe him on his relationship to Thiel about as much as I believe he invented email.
- mythz 10y agoThat doesn't dispute whether he denied if Thiel was backing his lawsuit. Ayyudurai has explicitly denied he was, maybe Thiel's relationship is directly with his Attorneys, maybe he's lying, maybe it's just a coincidence both used the same defamation attorney.
