Japanese cartoonists demand $1 billion in compensation for unauthorized use of screenshots of his cartoons.

CTOnews.com, 11 / 11 / PRNewswire-FirstCall-Asianet /-- Musk, the world's richest man who has just taken over Twitter, should be struggling with how to run the mess. Now a Japanese cartoonist claims that Musk used his art work without authorization on Twitter and demanded compensation of $1 billion.

CTOnews.com learned that the cartoonist, Kentaro Sato, the creator of the website Magic Girl, pointed out that Twitter CEO Elon Musk used his cartoon without his permission in a tweet in March, a crying girl who asked Musk to pay a $1 billion royalty.

It is not clear whether Kentaro Sato's claim of $1 billion is serious or a joke, and Mr Musk did not immediately respond to it.

Musk had previously expressed the views of the signed author when the work of art was posted on Twitter, saying that the name of the artist should not be identified, and claimed that the name of the artist was damaging to the media. because anyone can find the original author very easily.
