Framework is steadily growing with new products and availability in more regions. The company's latest notebook is the Framework Laptop 13 Pro. Framework's continued march forward has apparently attracted Dell's attention, as Dell is allegedly trying to sabotage Framework's influencer marketing on X.

Dirty corporate tricks by Dell? No surprise there.

Framework would do well by leveraging this to their advantage rather than complaining (if that’s what this is). They could make this a whole embarrassment for Dell and make them look weak by teasing them on social media. And get some good press in the process.

Maybe framework could tease the influencers by offering to give them a laptop, but only offering it to them piece by piece… That might be cool, then the influencers could release these teaser videos. That could really help them blow up.

That's exactly what they're doing with this tweet.
