        "content": "<p>Jakarta (ANTARA) - A competitor to the social media platform X, which\nrecently rebranded itself as Twitter, can no longer use that trademark\nfollowing a decision by a federal court in Delaware, United States.<\/p>\n<p>As reported by TechCrunch on Friday (4\/9), the platform, founded by\nthe startup Bluebird Operation, was originally launched under the name\nTwitter.now. They are now prohibited from using the name Twitter as\ntheir primary trademark.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the judge found that X may have abandoned two\ntrademarks related to the term \u2018tweet\u2019 and the bird logo, meaning both\ncan still be used by the platform created by Bluejack Operation.<\/p>\n<p>Operation Bluebird built the platform with the intention of reviving\nwhat existed on Twitter before it was acquired by Elon Musk and\nunderwent massive restructuring, including the name change to X.<\/p>\n<p>The effort to revive the old platform was initiated by lawyers\nMichael Peroff and Stephen Coates, the latter of whom was previously\npart of the Twitter trademark team.<\/p>\n<p>The platform claims to have successfully gathered 172,000 people\nrequesting accounts on the site prior to its official launch. This may\nhave been achieved due to the familiarity associated with the Twitter\nbrand among loyal users before its transition to X.<\/p>\n<p>The court\u2019s decision regarding the Twitter name controversy is not\nyet final.<\/p>\n<p>United States District Court Judge Colm F. Connolly issued the ruling\nregarding X\u2019s request for a preliminary injunction to stop Operation\nBluebird from using several Twitter trademarks that have been abandoned\nsince the rebranding.<\/p>",
