In less than a day, over 30 million users registered on the site, and two days after the launch, the user base grew to 70 million people. The popularity of Threads has already attracted the attention of Twitter's lawyers .According to Semafor, lawyers for Elon Musk's social network sent a letter to Mark Zuckerberg, accusing his company of "deliberate and misappropriation of trade secrets."
