New: I received a demand letter from NateTheLawyer's MAGA lawyer, and it's embarrassing. He is threatening to sue Bot Sentinel and me for comments his client made, deleted tweets, Bot Sentinel rating, and Twitter accounts not linked to me. LawTube lawyers are not serious lawyers.
Once again, here is the video of NateTheLayer laughing about falsifying evidence. These are his words, not mine.
"Come on, you didn't find that thing in that guy's pocket..."
"I knew all of the tricks because you know what I was doing all that s..t too."
Nate, LawTube, and his MAGA lawyer knew there was no case, but they did this for publicity. Nate raised $32,000 knowing you can't sue for deleted tweets, a video of him laughing about falsifying evidence, and a Bot Sentinel rating. The sad part is a lot of people got duped.
NateTheLawyer and LawTube should refund the money and apologize to their viewers. If they are insane enough to file a lawsuit similar to the demand letter, it will not survive a motion to dismiss. Nate, LawTube, and Ron Coleman have lost credibility with this charade.
Why didn't NateTheLawyer use his own funds to hire Ron Coleman? Why did Nate have to raise $32,000 for a demand letter that reads like it was written by a first-year law student? There are so many red flags here, and the fact lawyers are involved in this is concerning.
As I stated last night, I have received the demand letter, and on behalf of Bot Sentinel and myself, we will not comply. So let's fast forward to the MAGA lawyer filing the lawsuit, the judge laughing Nate and the MAGA lawyer out of court, and me proving LawTube is a joke.

Please be more proactive when questioning mis/disinformation and bot experts for your pieces. Ask for proof if an expert claims a group is amplifying mis/disinformation or hate speech. If an expert claims "bots" are pushing a narrative, ask for a few samples...
Ask the expert for their definition of the term "bot" and why they believe the accounts they identified are "bots?"
More importantly, if an expert claims a group of accounts are from a specific country, you must press the expert on their attribution process...
Attribution is complicated, and an expert must be able to explain how they identified the origin of the accounts. Your experts must show their work, and any expert refusing to show their work is a red flag.
When I launched Bot Sentinel, my mission was to give users powerful tools to navigate the social media cesspool safely. I quickly realized tools wouldn't be enough, and we had to be on the front lines exposing troll groups and bot networks other researchers purposely ignored...
When a troll group targeted Lisa Page and her allies, we published information on the targeted harassment campaign. When QAnon was getting a foothold on Twitter and spreading disinformation, we were part of the effort to get thousands of accounts removed from this platform...
When other researchers refused to investigate the toxic megxit groups, we tackled the issue head-on and exposed and virtually dismantled the groups. We could've stopped there, but we also tackled the issue of royal commentators amplifying single-purpose hate accounts...
This person attacked me five months after I blocked her. I responded to her attacks with DMs proving she lied, and now she is calling on Twitter to revoke our API access which has nothing to do with our exchange. This isn't a Karen move; this is a Carolyn Bryant move...
This person is unhinged and extremely dangerous.
She tweeted I blocked her while also claiming I was intimidating and threatening her. Wow... just wow.
Why are you lying, Caroline? By Jan 2020, Bot Sentinel was already cited in major publications. Why would I meet with you to promote Bot Sentinel when celebrities were tweeting about Bot Sentinel?
I was going to ignore this, but since you insist. Back at the beginning of 2020, before the pandemic got out of control, we met for coffee, and you spent nearly two hours asking me questions about mis/disinformation. You literally had a pad and wrote everything down...
Months later, you were calling yourself a mis/disinformation expert. I don't owe you an apology because you copied what I tweeted, and until that day, you never mentioned or cited Social Blade. I blocked you because you are a plagiarizing fraud. Period...
I was so disturbed by our interaction I had a text exchange about it immediately after I left the restaurant. I also told several associates on Twitter about it. I made the decision not to discuss it publicly because it wasn't that serious, and we have mutual acquaintances...
