X/Twitter is claiming ownership of all accounts on its platform

AI summary of the linked article

X filed an objection in The Onion's bid to buy InfoWars out of bankruptcy, claiming "superior ownership" of all accounts on its platform and asking the court to block the transfer of InfoWars and related Twitter accounts. X's lawyers argue that its terms of service grant users only a "license" to use the platform, while the company ultimately owns all accounts and can do anything it wants with them. Musk's lawyers write that few bankruptcy courts have addressed social media account ownership, and those that have focused on whether an individual or employer owned a business-used account, not whether the social media company holds a superior ownership right.
