Billionaire Elon Musk’s decision to rebrand Twitter as X could be complicated legally.

It’s rare for corporate brands to become verbs. It’s rarer still for the owner of such a brand to announce plans to intentionally destroy it.

Meta Platforms’ “Twitter killer” Threads got off to a rollicking start, but now engagement appears to be plunging.

Meta Platforms’ Twitter rival Threads crossed 100 million sign-ups within five days of launch.
