X has found its latest handle victim as it took away the handle "@music" from a user. It comes after the company suddenly removed the "X" handle from user Gene X Hwang. The page , which was formerly labeled Twitter Music, now has Vaught's old handle and is labeled as an affiliate of X. Just now, Twitter / X just ripped it away," Vaught tweeted. The removal of @music comes a week after the company took away the @x user handle from user Gene X Hwang without asking him.

The owner of the handle, Gene X Hwang, said he'd been willing to trade it. In its rebranding efforts, X — formerly known as Twitter — abruptly took over one of its user accounts with the handle @x on Tuesday night. He'd owned the @x handle since 2007 and has since generated over 53,000 followers on the social media site. X emailed Gene X Hwang that they had taken his handle during their rebranding process. What's more, taking over the @x handle appears to be the least of the social media's rebranding woes.
