Twitter.com/{username}/status/{tweetid} URLs redirect to x.com, because X continues to host the HTTP redirect (so that all of the existing links to tweets from other sites continue to work).
X acquired the database of tweets that billions of twitter.com URLs point to.
X acquired the Twitter trademarks when they acquired Twitter.
Probably millions of other users of the Twitter brand assets (in accordance with the posted Twitter brand guidelines) have not yet updated their Twitter bird logos to the X X.
To defend such trademarks, X corp must prosecute competing social media sites that misuse its trademarks and word marks out of accordance with the posted brand guidelines.
There is no statutory requirement for a company to continue to host brand guidelines for retained and/or actively used trademarks in order to retain their USPTO trademarks.
Did they register Twitter.new with intent to compete with Twitter.com in the Social Media space?
What does USPTO call the Twitter/X trademark exclusivity industry category?
That's confusing to the average consumer.
Isn't that like typo squatting?
