Did you read the article before slinging mud yourself? The whistleblower has been communicating with DC way before EM entered the picture.
Media only got its hands on the leaked material now.

>Zatko was fired by Twitter in January and claims that this was retaliation for his refusal to stay quiet about the company’s vulnerabilities. Last month, he filed a complaint with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that accuses Twitter of deceiving shareholders and violating an agreement it made with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to uphold certain security standards. His complaints, totaling more than 200 pages, were obtained by CNN and The Washington Post and published in redacted form this morning.
So, breaking it down more concisely:
1.) Fired in January
2.) Musk tries to buy Twitter in early April
3.) Complaint filed with SEC in July by Mudge ("way [after] EM entered the picture")
4.) WaPo published redacted, 200-page report today

Edit: This is not an endorsement of mud-slinging, just an attempt to make sure everyone knows what actually happened and when, at least as best we can discern at this point.

Probably because most of us in the chain you're replying to didn't have the time to read an 84-page source document in the middle of a work day (note the time of our comments and how late to this particular chain you are), hoping that a nugget of information like that would be dropped pretty early on in it. Hence my edit at the end, which I had hoped would have made it clear that I was open to being corrected.
But thank you so much for that snarky comment while you clarified things. You're so much better than us for finding that, how could we have ever been so daft? Forgive us?
Apologies for having offended you.
It's not fair to you, and I'm sorry. Hope ya have a great rest of the week. :)
And much good luck with your situation.
Here’s hoping you overcome the things you are struggling with!
>Zatko began the whistleblower process before there was any indication of Musk’s involvement
Define "Began the whistleblower process". Because that seems like an extremely fuzzy way of saying this. And even if you accept that he was genuinely a whistleblower in good faith trying to do this, which I'm perfectly willing to accept, the fact it's coming out in public now is still convenient timing.
It does say
>The disclosure, sent last month
Which means that the actual firm date we have coincides perfectly with Musk's legal wranglings.
