Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been controversial since buying Twitter for $44 billion in 2022. Recently, he made a big move to change Twitter’s name to “X”, and even erected a big “X” signboard on the top floor of Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters. Unexpectedly, because the X signboard radiated a strong light all night, many people in the San Francisco area were dissatisfied, and the X signboard even encountered a large number of prosecutions. At present, this signboard has also been removed because of the prosecution.
It is understood that on July 24, Musk announced that Twitter was renamed “X”, and then the signboard was replaced at the San Francisco headquarters building on the 28th, and the original classic blue bird was changed to the X signboard with strong light. .

The San Francisco Office of Building Inspection pointed out that the X logo may violate the licensing regulations. A staff member even mentioned in a written report that the representative of this social media company had twice refused the personnel of the Building Inspection Office to enter the headquarters for inspection. sign.
According to the “FOX” report, following experiencing a large number of reports, the X signboard was unplugged and turned off at 9:00 am on July 31, and then demolished, which was less than 5 days following the original construction. However, the San Francisco Building Inspection Department stated that X not only refused the staff to enter the roof inspection twice, but also did not obtain permission for the removal of the signboard this time. It is not ruled out that X will be fined for these two incidents in the future.
