New Twitter launches, says Musk's X gave up the name

A Virginia startup called Operation Bluebird has launched Twitter.now, claiming Elon Musk's X abandoned the Twitter name and logo when it rebranded in 2022. A federal judge gave a tentative ruling suggesting X may have forfeited intellectual property claims over the Twitter brand, though no written order has been issued yet.

Background

Elon Musk acquired Twitter in 2022 and rebranded it as X, sparking ongoing legal disputes over the former company's intellectual property rights and brand identity.
