    In about 48 hours Musk will ‘reveal’ the X rebranding freakshow was actually a ‘market test’ and they’ve gained ‘invaluable user data’ on what totally wasn’t another CEO tweet tantrum that some poor bastards had to try to translate into corporate policy.

      That would be on brand for Musk, but I think he will stick with this one as it was his dream for a long time. After all he did buy back x.com domain from PayPal after he merged with PayPal back in the day.

      It’s intentional. Whether it pans out, though, is another question. And of course there are better ways this could have been handled — like having a product to show first and then rebranding. But yeah, he was definitely driving towards it for a while now.

      Yeah, it’s just all the other issues that will cause trouble…
