So I read this crazy article about Elon Musk painting over the ‘W’ on the Twitter headquarters sign. Apparently, Musk did this as a prank after getting upset with Twitter for not verifying his account.
According to the article, Musk was frustrated with Twitter’s verification system and believed that it was biased against him. So, he took matters into his own hands and climbed on top of the Twitter headquarters to paint over the letter ‘W’ in the sign, making it look like ‘itter’.
The painting over of the ‘W’ was short-lived, as Twitter employees were quick to repair the damage. But the incident caused quite a stir on social media, with many people applauding Musk’s rebellious spirit and humor.
Personally, I find it amusing that someone as successful as Elon Musk still enjoys pulling pranks and causing a little chaos. It shows that even the most brilliant minds need a little levity in their lives.
All in all, the incident did bring attention to the issue of verified accounts on social media. While it may seem trivial, having a verified account can make a big difference in terms of credibility and influence. And with so many people trying to game the system, it’s important for social media platforms to have fair and transparent verification processes.
