On Monday, it appears X attempted to encourage users to cease referring to it as Twitter and instead adopt the name X. Some users began noticing that posts viewed via X for iOS were changing any references of “Twitter.com” to “X.com” automatically.
If a user typed in “Twitter.com,” they would see “Twitter.com” as they typed it before hitting “Post.” But, after submitting, the platform would show “X.com” in its place on the X for iOS app, without the user’s permission, for everyone viewing the post.
And shortly after this revelation, it became clear that there was another big issue: X was changing anything ending in “Twitter.com” to “X.com.”
The only time it’s ok to dead name anyone is, Twitter. Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Twitter Suck it elon!
It’s fine to deadname any corporation. Corporations are not people.
Biologically it is a twitter and nothing can change that.
What’s the name on its original articles of incorporation?
I’m waiting for someone to marry a corporation just to show how absurd the idea of corporate personhood is.
I’ll believe a corporation is a person when I see Texas fuckin’ execute one.
