Maybe, but why go through a lawsuit if you can use the power of the site to get your point across? If Musk can simultaneously get MM to back off their activities while gaining public favor in the process just by simply announcing a lawsuit then there would be no need for the expense. At the same time, if there's something really there (and let's be honest, discovery can take any amount of time) he can pursue it. You don't have to like/agree with Musk to understand that being loud about things you don't like when there's already a public predisposition by half the country is a good opening salvo.
