X CEO Linda Yaccarino changed her user name from @lindayaccs to @lindayaX to reflect Twitter's rebrand. It seems the company forgot to lock the handle, because someone stole it. Now they're impersonating her, seemingly without breaking any company rules.
The Yaccarino parody account lists xvideos.com in the link field, a reference to a porn site Gizmodo has obviously never heard of until now, and a nod at the fact that calling the company “X” creates a number of uncomfortable issues with official accounts and products that now need new names, such as the recently disabled @twittervideos account.
The company also sparked controversy by stealing the @x account from a long-time user without permission or compensation, according to reports.Last week, San Francisco police stopped the company from removing the iconic Twitter logo from the side of the building. Musk reportedly didn’t have a permit for the work, and didn’t take any safety precautions to protect pedestrians on the street below.
