It would be unfortunate for xAI, which abused the TOS of OpenAI for distilling via user accounts, to get a ruling that forbids scraping via user accounts.

The entire business model of the AI industry, who resell and launder the scraped data, would collapse.

Nitter just makes it visible to a human and has anti-scraper measures necessitated by the thieves like xAI.

Additionally, a GoFundMe would reach astronomical proportions given how unpopular Musk is.
