The company is rebranding as &#8220;X.&#8221; After Elon Musk&#8217;s acquisition, Twitter has undergone many changes, including company leadership, tweet reading limits, verified accounts, and more.\u00a0 But the new Musk regime is gunning straight for the Twitter branding itself. Early Monday morning, Twitter started replacing the blue bird logo with an \u201cX\u201d logo. The new branding also appears on Twitter\u2019s homepage as a profile picture for its official @Twitter account.
