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,

Elon Musk's X filed a limited objection to The Onion's attempt to purchase Alex Jones' InfoWars, claiming it had "superior ownership."

Elon Musk's X weighed in on the pending sale of Alex Jones' InfoWars to satirical newspaper The Onion to claim ownership of the the bankrupt conspiracy theorist's accounts on the social media site. Why it matters: X in a Monday court filing argued that its users don't own their accounts and those accounts can't be sold or transferred to a third party without X's permission.

Elon Musk’s X claims control over user accounts, arguing they cannot be transferred without consent, in a legal dispute over The Onion's purchase of InfoWars.

Elon Musk's X Corporation is blocking the transfer of Alex Jones' Infowars social media accounts to The Onion, asserting platform ownership in a move that could redefine digital account rights.
