You know ... it could be that since Haraldur is Iceland based, he doesn't have the same US civil rights. This could amount to No legal action. I haven't researched whether employment rights translate to employees in other countries. Re: releasing otherwise public information: That is a fantastic question. I don't know. I suspect there is a legal case to be made: I think about this as a hypothetical "reasonable person", which is what appears in the courtroom TV shows that I personally have watched. Perhaps obviously, I am not a lawyer, But I do watch TV shows about lawyers <3. 1) A reasonable person might conclude that Musk did not research Harald's Twitter feed but instead merely read his name, after receiving the direct tweet from Harald, and then asked Twitter human resources' database to confirm he was in fact His Twitter employee. 2) Alternatively a reasonable person might conclude that Musk did research Harald's Twitter feed before replying. And so it was okay for Musk to disclose. Again I'm being very approximate. So I think it's possible to make a case and it might be worth the potential legal victory and monetary payout for damages. To reiterate something tangential to your question, I think it is clear that regardless of the disclosure, Musk's thinking around the termination does include Haraldur's disability. That's not right, legally, from what I've read.
