Twitter's new ‘X’ logo may pose a legal issue for the tech company in the future, as online records reveal that Meta trademarked an ‘X’ logo years ago.
A record from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office shows that Meta applied to trademark their own ‘X’ logo on May 25, 2017. The trademark was officially registered in June 2019.
Meta's own ‘X’ logo appears to be two opposite angles assembled into an X shape. The white and light blue symbols are overlapped on a blue background, whereas Twitter's logo is a strikingly different black-and-white ‘X’ design.
