Ever heard of a brand so thoroughly ditched that someone else wants to claim it?



A Virginia-based startup just filed with the USPTO to strip X of its "Twitter" and "tweet" trademarks. Their argument? Musk walked away from the branding, so it's up for grabs now.

The twist? If they win this legal battle, they're planning to roll out their own social platform under that abandoned identity. Talk about opportunistic timing.

Haha, laughed to death. Did Elon Musk really want to shake off this burden by renaming Twitter to X? Turns out someone caught the loophole.

Whoa, is this copying Twitter's trademark? I'm directly going all-in and adding to my position. This is the final opportunity!

Haha, Musk's move is really shooting himself in the foot. Others are now directly rushing to register the trademark.

Haha, this is hilarious. Now even Musk will experience being reverse-harvested someday.

NGL, this move is a bit ruthless... Stealing someone else's abandoned trademark to launch a new platform—it's either a pie in the sky or a trap.

Haha, really? Such outrageous things can actually happen? --- Elon Musk wrecking Twitter like this, and someone still dares to scoop up the deal—pretty bold. --- Wait, are they trying to exploit legal loopholes to get a brand for free? But honestly, that's a bit hopeless. --- If it actually succeeds, that would be so ironic—X spent so much money rebranding, only to have it snatched back. --- Are the rules around trademarks this lax? Feels a bit ridiculous. --- I just want to know who ultimately wins this lawsuit, although I don't think the chances are high. --- The opportunistic vibe is pretty obvious, but I have to admit, there's some real skill in this maneuver.

ngl this smells like classic trademark vulturing... been tracking these patterns for months. the filing timeline + platform launch window? too convenient. suspicious activity detected tbh

Haha, this move is really clever. Now just wait for Musk to ignore it and go directly to scoop up the deal.
