The federal courts in the US are theoretically non-partisian. But 2025 has shown that the Department of Justice has functioned as Trump's personal legal counsel. That's even happening as we speak with the kerfuffle behind the Central Bank (another non-partisan organization that Trump is desperately trying to make partisan). As is, Musk probably isn't going to get confronted by this current DoJ. The state courts may try to take this up, but it has less reach than the federal courts. Other country's courts may take action and even ban X. >what are realistic options? Shaming the perps? A bit of hacktivism? Those can happen. I don't know how much it moves the needle, but those will be inevitable reactions. The only way out for the American people would be to mass boycott X over this, but our political activism has been fairly weak. Especially for software.
