The blackout on X extends beyond these companies’ corporate accounts, in some cases.
Prior to Musk’s backing of an antisemitic post, Colbert’s show, however, was primarily active on X, regularly posting videos and other content.
It is, of course, possible that these companies will reverse course down the road and resume posting and even advertising on the platform.
And if more companies and other notable figures abandon Musk’s platform for other social networks, it will extinguish the allure it once had, providing yet another reason for average users to ditch the troubled platform.
“Every day, more brands are waking up to the reality that Twitter is dead and X is a cesspool,” Platformer’s Casey Newton said.
