Summary
Elon Musk’s X (formerly Twitter) has filed a court motion claiming ownership of all X accounts, arguing they cannot be transferred, in an effort to block The Onion’s purchase of InfoWars, Alex Jones’s conspiracy outlet.
The sale was part of a $1.4 billion judgment against Jones for defaming Sandy Hook families.
X’s filing asserts that users only hold a non-transferable license to their accounts, despite Musk’s prior actions threatening to reassign handles.
Critics view Musk’s move as aiding far-right figures like Jones and aligning with his MAGA agenda.
Yeah. This won’t hasten the exodus to Bluesky or anything
It won’t. People on on twitter cause they say the engagement isn’t the same everywhere else. But I think its just bots.
I’ve started noticing embedded bluesky posts in news stories instead of embedded tweets. I think it might.
