Vladimir Kramnik addressed a question from his Telegram channel about taking legal action against Chess.com. The former world champion indicated he would file suit as soon as tomorrow if the necessary financial backing materialized. He specified that he requires at least one million dollars to cover lawyers and court expenses.

Kramnik has maintained his criticism of the platform over time, focusing on what he characterizes as inadequate safeguards against cheating in online tournaments. He has previously lodged complaints against Chess.com regarding abusive conduct, price discrimination, and market dominance.

Without the required funding, Kramnik indicated he would continue pursuing alternative approaches. His willingness to escalate to litigation shows the depth of his concerns about the platform's operations and practices.
