rusticus1773 ( @rusticus1773@lemmy.ml ) English55•11 months agoLegal counsel has to be blowing their brains out as well. How in the world can you defend your trademark when it’s a letter? Good luck playing wack a mole with all the copycats.
SokathHisEyesOpen ( @Anticorp@lemmy.ml ) English7•11 months agoEspecially since it’s a letter from a specific font. I seriously doubt he secured the license to that font from its creator and from everyone who has purchased rights to it before he came along.
godless ( @godless@latte.isnot.coffee ) English6•11 months agoA design patent & matching trademark should do. Can’t protect the word mark, but as far as I understood, the name Twitter remains unchanged.
SokathHisEyesOpen ( @Anticorp@lemmy.ml ) English20•11 months agoWhat importance does an X have for Twitter? What does that represent? The censorship he employs after swearing to adhere to freedom of speech?
RickyRigatoni ( @RickyRigatoni@lemmy.ml ) English12•11 months agoHe is a manchild who is still in the phase of thinking X is the coolest letter of the alphabet. Give it a few weeks and he’ll be obsessed with Q or Z instead.
YMS ( @YMS@kbin.social ) 8•11 months agoMusk may be erratic in other things, but his preference for the letter X is a constant, just ask x.com (1999), SpaceX (2002), the Tesla Model X (2012) or X Æ A-12 (2020).
SokathHisEyesOpen ( @Anticorp@lemmy.ml ) English4•11 months agoOh I’m sure he’s at least partially invested in Q… Qanon that is.
floofloof ( @floofloof@lemmy.ca ) English4•11 months agoMaybe it’s Musk’s subconscious attraction to the “edgy” swastika. The Nazis had that at 45 degrees so it becomes a decorated X.
Gresham's Law ( @abieNathanTheyThem@lemmy.ml ) English1•11 months ago“Someone tweeted at him” Narrative built for liability reasons.
It’s a crucifix to taunt the masses due to how powerless we are against the elites and their pawns.
For more contexts: St. Andrew’s Cross or the Saltire Cross.
auth ( @authed@lemmy.ml ) English13•11 months agoIsn’t X is son’s name too?
RealAccountNameHere ( @RealAccountNameHere@beehaw.org ) English17•11 months agoYep, X Æ A-Xii, X for short.
This is what comes when people equate having money with creativity and intelligence.
taurentipper ( @taurentipper@kbin.social ) 1•11 months agoHis name is unfortunately “Fuck you I’m not even attempting to pronounce that shit”. Thankfully he won’t go to a public school, poor kid would get bullied so much. Or she? lol

Disregard3145 ( @Disregard3145@lemmy.ml ) English3•11 months agoI think its allowed so long as you declare that its a saltire cross. Otherwise you might get banned.
Tigbitties ( @Tigbitties@kbin.social ) 6•11 months agoHe’s still a twit.
Gh05t ( @Gh05t@beehaw.org ) English5•11 months agoI’ve read that Microsoft owns the X mark - at least when it comes to gaming and associated activities like chat - sending messages digitally across the internet…
Destide ( @sirico@feddit.uk ) English3•11 months agoXorg with out one element not sure that will work legally
Magnor ( @magnor@lemmy.magnor.ovh ) English6•11 months agoThing is, the us legal system is anything but fair. Musk would outspend them tenfold and as such win by cash KO. Shit sucks man.
PeWu ( @PeWu@lemmy.ml ) English4•11 months agoI’m tired of living in this shitshow
