Elon Musk's surprise announcement to rebrand Twitter as 'X' has raised significant legal challenges, as competitors like Microsoft and Meta already possess trademarks for the same letter. The decision could set the stage for a legal dispute among tech's biggest players, leaving many wondering if anyone would challenge Musk's social media makeover. Following the revelation, it became apparent that Meta, under Mark Zuckerberg's leadership, had already registered 'X' in relation to social media, potentially clashing with Musk's rebranding move.
