The FTC has sent a dozen letters to the company since Musk took over and is looking to depose Musk, according to the report, which said that excerpts from the letters were published in a staff report from the House Judiciary Committee. Among the requests in the letters were for information on Twitter’s layoffs, journalists being granted access to internal information, and the company’s Twitter Blue subscription service.
