The meta rebranding made my skin craw. The X rebranding is dumb on Elon Musk’s part. However you make a good point.

I believe Apple got its name from the biblical term of the forbidden fruit. Microsoft has a megacorp sounding name. Will Amazon rename itself to something dystopian?

AFAIK Microsoft came from the Neuromancer novel. A microsoft is a tool in the book.

Could be wrong though, but I feel Ike that book was written before Microsoft was a company.
