X, formerly known as Twitter, is a global social media platform that facilitates real-time communication and the sharing of short messages, known as "tweets." Founded in 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams, Twitter quickly became a key platform for public discourse, news, and social interaction. Known for its character-limited posts and use of hashtags, Twitter played a pivotal role in shaping online communication, politics, and social movements.

In 2023, Twitter underwent a significant rebranding, adopting the name X, after being acquired by Elon Musk in a high-profile deal. X has faced scrutiny over various issues, including content moderation practices, data privacy concerns, and its handling of user-generated content.
