You say that but they literally went to court against a journalist claiming they "hacked" them because the journalist simply referenced their html code that is visible from pressing F12.

Luckily I think the case was dismissed but it was really close and was extremely problematic to begin with.
ngl making a troll "hacker" account that just publishes the f12 screen and simple inspect element edits would be gold. "Today we hacked Elon and made him pro BlueSky!"
