X Corp., formerly known as Twitter, was sued in federal court in Florida on Monday by a legal-marketing company that claims the social media giant’s new name infringes its trademark incorporating the letter “X.”

The lawsuit by X Social Media claims that X Corp., which owner Elon Musk began rebranding to X from Twitter in July, was likely to cause consumer confusion.
