Twitter is/was a private company?
The info box says that Twitter is/was a private company. Then the next line lists its publicly traded company stock symbol. I don’t understand.

 * It was a publicly-traded company, under the stock symbol listed, and then it became private when Elon Musk bought it. Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 03:50, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

This article should be merged with X Corp.
This article should be merged with X Corp. since company is technically not defunct, just changed its name since being acquired by Elon Musk. NorthPark1 (talk) 11:38, 7 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Strong Oppose - X Corp. and Twitter, Inc. are two seperate companies with different history. The history of Twitter is too big to fit into one page WiinterU (talk) 21:06, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
 * wasn't tagged. as such, consider this discussion as having begun 21:27, 13 February 2024 (UTC) Queen of Hearts 21:27, 13 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Oppose. Different companies; while the Twitter Inc was acquired by X Corp, that doesn't make them the same. X Corp existed before it acquired Twitter (although solely as a holding company to prepare for the merger). Couruu (talk) 15:14, 22 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Oppose — The Twitter company from founding, to going public, to being a public company for years, up to the time of sale and being privately-held is a very diff company from the company X, a privately-held company that is being built out of the IP and network effect of the old Twitter social media platform, but with ~20% of the employees working on it, and with very different policies as a social media and AI (and financial, as claimed by current management) company.

 * These need to be merged for the following reasons:
 * Historical context: By merging the two pages, readers can easily access this historical context and understand how the platform has evolved over time. X is a rebranding of Twitter.
 * Avoiding redundancy: A merged page would help to eliminate any potential content duplication between the two pages, ensuring that the information presented is concise, accurate, and up-to-date.
 * Future-proofing: As the platform continues to evolve under the X brand, a single, unified page will make it easier to maintain and update the information, ensuring that readers have access to the most current and accurate content.

 * Strong Oppose — Musk filed A COURT DOCUMENT legally declaring Twitter, Inc. had ceased to exist and that its legal successor would be one of the two X Holdings companies established under the third umbrella X corporation. Unless you want to fight a much bigger fight involving a court of law, the answer is No.


 * Strong Oppose — I think there should not be a discussion in the first place since Twitter officially stated that it is "owned" by a company named X Corp., and that is the end of the discussion. Moreover, Twitter got re-branded as "X" Hence, I think that the page title should be renamed from Twitter, Inc. to X (Social Network company). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tomlovesfar (talk • contribs) 16:43, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
