Fifth Harmony's Lauren Jauregui Thinks Elon Musk Is Destroying Twitter ON PURPOSE! Here's Why...

Lil Nas X approves of the Twitter revamp.

Say goodbye to the little blue bird — Elon Musk has officially relaunched Twitter under the new name X.

Elon Musk, who bought the social media platform formerly called Twitter last fall, has rebranded it to ‘X’ after a weekend of messaging signaling the change that included a photo of the new logo projected on the company’s San Francisco headquarters and a video of a flickering X.

Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor Over the weekend, Elon Musk issued the unexpected fiat via late-night/early-morning tweetstorm (x-storm?) that Twitter would now be known as X — complete with a new X logo that has replaced the bonny blue birdie on the service’s website. Per Musk, you won’t be posting tweets on his social platform, you will be throwing up… “x’s.” Musk’s hand-picked new CEO Linda Yaccarino, late of NBCUniversal, tried to explain the situation. “X is the future state of unlimited interactivity — centered in audio, video, messaging, payments/banking — creating a global marketplace for ideas, goods, services and opportunities,” she, uh, x’d on Sunday. “Powered by AI, X will connect us all in ways we’re just beginning to imagine.”

Elon Musk has given Twitter a makeover, scrapping the blue bird icon for a new "minimalist art deco" X image. The Twitter owner first indicated his plans to change the old logo on Saturday before rolling out the new one in the early hours of Monday. The new image was created by one of Musk's followers, who has tweeted that he first created it for a now-defunct podcast.

Elon Musk has revealed the new logo for Twitter as part of its major rebrand. This weekend the billionaire teased the end of the popular social media site as we know it when he tweeted: "And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds."

Twitter is about to get a total rebrand, according to Elon Musk.

Elon Musk is making yet another change to his social media platform.

For Twitter users, “X” will soon mark the spot.

Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor Goodbye Twitter, hello X? Elon Musk, the multibillionaire who controls Twitter, said the social network he took over in October 2022 will be renamed “X” — relegating the cute little blue birdie to the scrap heap of internet history. “Soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds,” Musk wrote in a late-night Saturday post. He also said the platform’s website will be run off the x.com domain name, and posted a poll asking whether it should “Change default platform color to black” (with about 75% votes in favor as of Sunday morning).

Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor The battle between Elon Musk’s Twitter and Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta over the launch of Instagram’s Twitter rival Threads has taken a legal turn. On Wednesday, Meta’s Instagram debuted Threads, a text-focused social app designed to piggyback off Instagram’s infrastructure and user base. The app had more than 30 million sign-ups as of Thursday morning, according to Zuckerberg. In a July 5 cease-and-desist letter addressed to Meta CEO Zuckerberg, a lawyer representing Twitter said that Musk’s company had “serious concerns” that Meta “has engaged in systematic, willful and unlawful misappropriation of Twitter’s trade secrets and other intellectual property.” The letter said that “Twitter intends to strictly enforce its intellectual property rights, and demands that Meta take immediate steps to stop using any Twitter trade secrets or other highly confidential information.”

As Twitter faces a significant new challenge from Instagram offshoot Threads, CEO Linda Yaccarino is defending her turf.

Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta has unleashed its frontal attack on Twitter, the social network controlled by Elon Musk. On Wednesday (July 5), Meta’s Instagram launched Threads, described as a “text-based conversation app.” The app is available in Apple’s App Store for iOS devices and in Google Play for Android.

Jack Dorsey has given his thoughts on Meta’s new Twitter rival Threads as the social platform preps a launch on July 6.

Lauren Jauregui is sharing her opinion after Elon Musk set viewing limits on Twitter. The former Fifth Harmony member feels that it’s not a “coincidence” that the Tesla founder is implementing these changes as the U.S. prepares for another presidential elections cycle.

Lauren Jauregui is slamming Elon Musk again.

Jack Dorsey, Twitter co-founder and former CEO, is weighing in on the uproar Elon Musk caused on the social platform after setting “view limits” on tweets.

 according to DownDetector. As of 1 p.m., there were over 7,000 outage reports regarding the website.Some users flagged issues that included being unable to retrieve tweets, or the error message, «Sorry, you are rate limited. Please wait a few moments then try again.» Rate limits increasing soon to 8000 for verified, 800 for unverified & 400 for new unverified https://t.co/fuRcJLifTnElon Musk, who took over the platform in 2022, tweeted around 1 p.m.

Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor On Friday, Twitter — without notice — suddenly blocked access to the website for anyone who isn’t signed in as a registered user. Many people were confused about the change, wondering whether it was a glitch or a purposeful move on the part of Twitter, which is under the control of mega-billionaire Elon Musk. Previously, you could search Twitter and view tweets without needing a registered account. But now, visiting any Twitter page displays a log-in prompt instead. Musk, in a post Friday afternoon, claimed that Twitter took the step to improve performance on the platform after third-party companies were “scraping” data and overloading its systems. “Temporary emergency measure,” he tweeted. “We were getting data pillaged so much that it was degrading service for normal users!”
