Elon Musk, hailed by MAGA supporters as the “Champion of Free Speech”, reminded the world today that he owns everyone’s X account, as his attorneys filed a claim in court today stating that The Onion, which is trying to purchase the media empire of Alex Jones, cannot take control of Alex Jones and the Infowars Twitter/X accounts, because Elon Musk and X own everyone’s account on the social media platform, and not the users who created those accounts.
Elon Musk Says He Owns Everyone’s Twitter Account in Bizarre Alex Jones Court Filing
Musk’s X is trying to stop The Onion from buying Alex Jones’ social media accounts.
Does it feel like your X account belongs to you and you can do whatever you want with it? That’s not true, according to a new court filing from the social media company formerly known as Twitter. It’s an argument that X is making in order to throw a wrench in The Onion’s recent purchase of InfoWars.
X’s legal filing on Monday, posted online by 404 Media, argues that all of the social media accounts in the auction can’t be transferred.
“Put simply, accounts are inherently part of X Corp.’s Services and their ‘use,’” the company said in Monday’s court filing.
“A user must use X Corp.’s Services to create an account in the first instance, and to continue using the account going forward.”
X insists it wasn’t claiming ownership of the content in the accounts, and is only saying it controls the accounts themselves.
“While X Corp. takes no position as to the sale of any Content posted on the X Accounts, X Corp. is the sole owner of the Services being sold as part of the sale of the X Accounts,” the social media company wrote in its court filing.
“While X Corp. has granted account holders, such as Jones and FSS, a license to use the Services, such license is non-assignable, both under the terms of the TOS and applicable non-bankruptcy law (i.e., as a personal services contract), and the Trustee cannot sell, assign, or otherwise transfer such license absent X Corp.’s consent.”
Since Elon Musk bought Twitter and renamed it to X, has he ever used these terms of conditions to take over someone’s X account simply because he owns them all?
Yes, it has happened multiple times.
In fact, he did it when he re-branded Twitter to X by seizing the @X account from someone else who already had it for 16 years.
ELON MUSK SEIZES @X ACCOUNT FROM GUY WHO OWNED IT
After abruptly changing Twitter’s name to “X,” erstwhile CEO Elon Musk has also taken over the handle associated with the letter — without compensating the person who owned it before.
In an interview with Mashable, Gene X Hwang, the previous owner of the @X account, said that he wasn’t paid a dime after the company seized the account he’d held for nearly 16 years.
Instead, he “got an email basically saying they are taking it.”
A cofounder of the San Francisco-based event photography company Orange Photography, Hwang told Mashable in an earlier interview that he was among the earliest adopters of Twitter because, living in the Bay Area, he had friends who used or worked at the social network.
Back in the early aughts of 2006, it wasn’t hard for him to register a single-letter username, so he took the letter “X” for his middle name and used it until, well, this week.
Hwang told Mashable that after Musk announced that he was changing the site’s name to X, he’d expected the account to be commandeered eventually, though he hoped he’d be offered some money once that inevitability occurred — especially since there had been some previous chatter that the company might auction off rare handles to the highest bidder.
Alas, there were no dice when the account was taken… (Source.)
Elon Musk also seized the @America X account earlier this year when he started pumping $millions into Donald Trump’s election campaign. The previous “owner” of that account had been critical of Musk and Trump.
Elon Musk uses @america X handle to boost Trump
X owner Elon Musk seized the @America username on the platform, using the account to advocate for former President Donald Trump against Vice President Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.
Why it matters: Musk is using his social media platform to amplify right-wing views and is openly admitting his rightward shift to over 200 million followers ahead of the November election.
Driving the news: The revamped @America handle emerged before Musk jumped onstage with his arms held high to join Trump Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania for a make-up rally months after it was cut short when Trump was shot in the ear.
The original @America user now has the account handle @America123_12. The account had been registered to another user since 2010, but has been dormant for four years, according to journalist Matt Binder.
The user has posted over the years criticizing Trump and Musk. In one post, the user responded to Musk’s “FREE AMERICA NOW” tweet by saying, “Freedom is not the question here, its safety. You’re irresponsible. Are you even a full time resident?”
State of play: Musk’s personal account bio direct’s users to “Read @America to understand why I’m supporting Trump for President.”
The bio on @America account reads: “PAC was created to support candidates who champion Secure Borders, Sensible Spending, Safe Cities, Fair Justice System, Free Speech and Self-Protection.”
The PAC is currently offering supporters $47 for each registered swing voter they refer who signs a petition in support of the First and Second Amendments. (Source.)
As I have previously reported, there is no such thing as “free speech” on these social media platforms that are owned by pedophile billionaires.
They offer their services to the public for “free”, but when you join that platform you sign a legal contract that gives them the right to do whatever they say they want to do.
In exchange for your “free” access to their platform, you agree to let them collect whatever data they want on you and your followers, and they can shut down or seize your account anytime they want.
And it’s all legal.
If you want the protection that the First Amendment offers for “freedom of speech,” then purchase your own platform to put up your own private website where you get to set the terms and conditions.
Then, if your own paid-for private platform is seized by the government because they don’t like what you say, you now have a legitimate case for a violation of the First Amendment.
But what these billionaire pedophiles offer you on their social media platforms as “free” is not truly free, and “free speech” is a myth as they get to define what “free speech” is by their own standards.
I learned this the hard way back in the 2010s when we probably spent over a $million over the course of several years promoting our Facebook Page, to the point where we had well over 1 million followers, and then Facebook just basically shut us down because of what we are publishing about vaccines and other controversial issues.
I don’t play the rich man’s games anymore.
And I get complaints all the time from my own critics, mostly the Conservative Christian MAGA crowd who adore Elon and Trump, when I don’t publish their comments trying to discredit my articles.
I get accused of “Censorship,” but it is not “Censorship”, because you have the same rights and opportunities that I do to purchase your own private place on the Internet and say whatever you want to say.
If we took this issue out of the digital world into the physical world, it would be like a pastor or a priest in a private church talking about the advantages of getting married and raising a family, but then were forced to allow opposing voices from the LGBTQ community to come in and disagree, and talk about the advantages of homosexuality.
No, that is not “free speech” in that situation, nor is it on the Internet.
So what’s the solution?
Stop playing their games and stop using their products. It really is that simple.
But social media is so addicting, that very few will even consider that.
