Does this mean I won't be able to use the letter 'x' anymore because a multi-billion dollar company has trademarked it:
- Two people fighting will now be boing.
- When I want to bake some bread I will mi the ingredients together.
- When I want to leave a building I will eit it.
- I will now look up to the stars at night to see the magnificent epance of the Milkyway galay.

Apparently the X used by Twi-- er, X Corp, is from a font that X may not actually have the actual license to use.
56 0 ReplyElon doesn't pay his hosting bills or rent, you think he's gonna care about something as inane as a license fee?
27 0 ReplyOf course not, but it's worth pointing out :p

Of course not. Licenses are for the poors. The creator of the font will benefit from the exposure of being the logo.

Elon is seriously speed running proving to hoggest of the hogs that rich people are not special or more intelligent. I absolutely refuse to believe even the reply guys with Musk’s limp dick perpetually stuffed in their various orifices can think changing a “successful” (at least well known) 20 year old company’s branding and name. Anyone even pretending to support this is absolutely coping. My brain cannot fathom the stupidity required to believe otherwise.
