TWITTER has reportedly threatened to sue Meta over its new “lookalike” Threads app.
Mark Zuckerberg’s so-called “Twitter killer” app launched this week and already has more than 30million subscribers.
Threads – which is an offshoot of Instagram – is a text-based app that directly rivals Twitter.

Lawyers for Twitter reportedly sent a letter to Meta chief Mark Zuckerberg personally, accusing the company of intellectual property theft.
We’ve asked Meta for comment and will update this story with any response.
