You mean the X site (formerly known as bird)
Nope. Twitter. My tracker blocker still shows that the URLs for them are coming from Twitter, and I'm pretty sure if you go to X it still redirects to Twitter. I don't know why this is the case, but it is. I have no idea why he'd want to buy a recognizable company and remove the recognition though.
Because the purchase of Twitter was about power, not money.
Owned by an ex husband and ex father! Yeah!
