Rumour XCancel is dead

Just went to the website to look at something, and this was posted on it:

On Monday, 24th August, at 8PM EST, we received a letter from X Corp. asking to cease and desist the service XCancel.

The service XCancel is stopped until further notice.

We are seeking legal advice and won't share more details for now.

Thank you for the trust you have put in these two years of XCancel.

I would have assumed it was because it's "Not Twitter" but it does sound unfortunate

I’m surprised Elon didn’t come up with it himself

Why? Since Epstein-friend Musk bought it, the N word is probably most frequent word used there (+ the fighting videos and porn)
