I can’t help but think he’s trolling with the X rebranding.

Three cheers for bigger government

What's the difference between big government and big corporations both trample human rights with ease

Well, the bird is gone and I guess that means Twitter is officially dead. I apologize to the people ITT who I have been making fun of for saying RIP Twitter for 2.5 years.

Hard to believe this issue wouldn't have been considered in advance.

Musk and his partner are a little weird. I don't really care what he calls his business but wanting to rename your child "?" is pretty screwed up. Then again, the original name of "X Æ A-12" is just insane.

The guy and his partner are not normal.

Grimes says she's changed her and Elon Musk's daughter's name

Going to start a rumor that Elon named his son after this company

Speaking of coffins



Threads needs one

That could be seen from a million miles away. IG has a gigantic user base, and they essentially gave every IG user an account (you had to click a couple of buttons and voila, you had a Threads account with the same handle as your IG account). That drove all of the early traffic.

Even I did it, but haven't used it once.

IMO, to reach the levels of success, fame, fortune, etc. that he has, you have to be weird/insane by definition.

The man has 9 living children (one died very young) and works 100+ hour weeks, sleeping at the office most nights. That is not normal.

You’re obsessed.

This is crazy. These @'s can be worth a decent amount of money. You're worth hundreds of billions. Just pay the guy. Turns out, this isn't the only @ he's seized.

Elon Musk takes control of @X account from user who had held it for 16 years

Also from the article:

The hasty switch from one brand to another may result in legal difficulties for Mr Musk, according to trademark lawyers, after it was revealed that the billionaire does not own the intellectual property rights for the letter X when it relates to social networking.

Tech rivals Meta and Microsoft both own trademarks for ‘X’ in different domains, with Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg currently controlling the federal trademark for a blue-and-white letter ‘X’ for “social networking services”.

“There’s a 100 per cent chance that Twitter is going to get sued over this by somebody,” one US-based IP lawyer said on Tuesday.
