X, the company formerly knowns as Twitter, removed the giant flashing letter sign from the rooftop of their headquarters after it caused complaints about the nighttime brightness. KNTV’s Scott Budman reports.

They should put a big L cause it’s an epic fail.
@Big Picture ThinkingLibral men are triggered by intelligence and masculinity.
@Regressives destroy cities Liberal = L – I – B – E – R – A – L
What else
were you going to teach the world about “intelligence”?
@Good Times-RollYou sound like the type of Liberal with soft hands who bought a Tesla and later found out Elon was conservative. Trump 2024! 🇺🇸🐸☕️
@Kenny Steele
You’d be wrong, four times in one comment. Golf clap for you.
I am sure it’s a familiar state. After all, you sent money to a “billionaire” who loses more than any public figure.
Your golf-cheat-bigot, will go to prison. Most likely as a result of a black woman’s hard work.
The poetic justice is perfect.
Have a nice day.
@Regressives destroy cities
You think Elon is masculine?
$100 says you have lube next to your space-x toy rocket.🤣🤣🤣
I’m sick of chaos.
Ah unfortunately the tribulation period hasn’t happened yet. Just wait. crazy isn’t going anywhere.
@John Doe
There’s no such thing
Turn off the news
Vote red
Having Taylor Lorenz comment on something becoming a laughing stock is peak mainstream “news” irony.
Is she even considered a journalist, anymore?
Elon doesn`t need another lawsuit lol
“Ten”
Haha! Look up on YouTube, the Tesla factory parking lot lights that Elon Musk put up at his Tesla manufacturing facility in Austin. The local news media are reporting that neighbors to Tesla are complaining about the same thing as this X sign in San Francisco. Musk refuses to take down the Tesla parking lot lights that are blinding all of the neighbors.
Maybe the hyperloop will save Musk’s reputation? Oh wait.
Don’t forget the semis that cannot pull much weight.
It must be a slow news day, this story is totally lame. Someone took a sign down from a building, big whoop
a 43 billion dollar sign.
The corrupt failed Democrat leadership, cannot do anything about the filthy homeless, open drug and crime issues, but criticize one of the few remaining tax paying businesses!
Support crime. Its the new American way. According to Democrats.
0:45 “AT ALLLOU” MAN I hate how these rich people speak English, she thinks is BARBIE!
Please stop calling them X.
Well that’s what the company is now called.
Deal with it
@Lewisnah im going to continue calling them twitter out of spite actually
@Insane Hawk how brave and stunning of you. Would you like a medal?
@Lewis I am calling them Twitter as well because Musk put the “twit” in twitter.
Now I want a medal, cookies, and a titanium Bozo Button with built-in GPS.
Noting your bold stance on this issue, might you have some expertise along these lines?
@John Martindale as a wise man once said ‘I have nothing to say’
An “L” would be more appropriate.
I uninstalled X
You will be missed
Cool
Exene and John doe should sue him till his ears bleed
Im going to x out some x’s and re x x’s from x
I liked this eXclusive.
Xmarks the spot
And ur the treasure 😊
That’s what she said just before spray painting my but
Just put a giant toilet on the roof. Its a more fitting symbol for Musk’s brand.
Or, simply the handle as he *flushes* it all away… 🤔 😁
X😂
Tbh Musk has only been respected due to other’s greatness. From SpaceX to Tesla, even his future robots are created by actual pros, something Elon has only wished to be all his spoiled life.
Elon Musk has become Gavin Belson.
That’s my letter X 😂
Thank goodness, it was driving the locals nuts.
They are already nuts.
They are already nutjobs
Morons .X
This is all just so ridiculous..
Nimbyism hate is what killed San Francisco’s charm, economy and social fabric. Permits should have been legally acquired, but the characterization spewed by this go for the throat mentality woman is as pejorative as can be.
It flashed super bright strobe, it was without a doubt an eyesore and disturbance. I guess you want a super bright flashing strobe in your backyard… Also you sound like a goober with your attempt at sounding articulate.
No, liberal policies killed SF
!!!😮😂😊😅

It’s amazing that after months of hard work, Elon still hasn’t destroyed twitter completely.
Stupid people don’t know how to break stuff efficiently, that’s why they’re stupid.
😂😂😂
Why destroy it when the goal has always been to slowly dismantle it while also doing a little trolling to trigger the sensitives
*She’s such a HATER!!!! She should work on her stage presence, & warmth. A little lipstick 💄 & humor would do her well.
Put an X anywhere you want @ElonMusk you’ve earned it. Humanity needs you, ignore these ugly spirited people.
#LifeIs4Living & #Loving ❤😊🚀
GLAD elon can’t be so OBNOXIOUS
X got followers and tourist come to see it? Those people needs help. I wish they got it soon
San Fran is already a laughing stock… Has been for some time.
The vague non descript brick building with little evidence that life inhabits it suits what musk is all about far better, truly. I think they should leave the sign just keep it off for now. It’ll be a nice beacon for demo crews when all is said and done.
They didnt show, but id not be surprised if it was ordered to be taken down. It didnt just light up like they showed but flashed intense strobe lights, it genuinely seemed like an attempt at trolling.
It’s excessively bright that you can’t even see the letter X. Even a neon sign is still pleasing to the eye.
So the ex X was taken down by the exec.
This guy is melting down right before our eyes!
What about the cocaine they found at the White House during the Fourth of July weekend? That the secret service found at the Oval Office? Is Joe Biden doing blow or give blow?
His crackhead son is with bidens full support
People usually put their X’s behind them and move on.
dumpster fire
Stupidest smart guy
Trash your twitter account.
I’ll miss the the sing😢😂
X marks the spot Twitter once stood!😅😵💫🙄🥴😵💫😵🥱🤔🤭☠️🤡👹🎟🔚🖕👎👋🤙👏💋🪦⚰️death
Elon trolling SF like a boss !
He probably knew the sign wouldn’t stay. But, he did it anyway.
Move X out of that trash pit called SF, Elon.
Looks like half of the compass and square.
Huge Elon Musk fan here! Don’t care what the fake news says about him!
Lol, have fun being a stooge
👍 ok
Suuure, a farmer can afford a car worth that much. Keep butt kissing.
@Tl Lthave fun being triggered by anything that goes against your pathetic one world view. 🤡
It was a freaking Giant Strobe Light. Who tf wants to disco all night every night and raise kids and go to work?
If it said BLM they’d be all for it.
X to me signifies NO and this is exactly how i feel about Elon’s business.
I think I finally know how to categorise #ElonMusk. *(Note: I think.)* He acts/resembles a pampered, rich kid doted on by adoring parents and well-paid staff, who has dark temper-tantrums and zero self-control. It’s probably he has hyper-active attention deficit disorder. U’d think, with all those finances available, he’d seek professional help for that. 🤔
🫧Thus ends my self-diagnosing-from-afar-with-no-actual-documentation. 🤷♀️😂
Sounds like Gavin Newsom
