☆ Meta, Microsoft, hundreds more own trademarks to new Twitter name
  + stars: | 2023-07-25 | by ( ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
Reuters —Billionaire Elon Musk’s decision to rebrand Twitter as X could be complicated legally: companies including Meta and Microsoft (already have intellectual property rights to the same letter. X is so widely used and cited in trademarks that it is a candidate for legal challenges - and the company formerly known as Twitter could face its own issues defending its X brand in the future. Microsoft since 2003 has owned an X trademark related to communications about its Xbox video-game system. Meta Platforms - whose Threads platform is a new Twitter rival - owns a federal trademark registered in 2019 covering a blue-and-white letter “X” for fields including software and social media. Meta and Microsoft likely would not sue unless they feel threatened that Twitter’s X encroaches on brand equity they built in the letter, Gerben said.

As if all that wasn't enough, Elon Musk reached a deal in April to buy Twitter for $44 billion. The deal hasn't closed yet, but Musk has shared some thoughts publicly — and privately to investors — that indicate what some of the company's direction and priorities would be under his ownership.
