In fairness, DNS entries do get cached for a while (usually 24 hours), so you might have gotten a stale version of the resource record. It’s even entirely possible that whatever DNS resolver Musk uses did have the up to date version already while yours did not.
Still, Twitter should double and triple checked that this works even from other resolvers before announcing it like this.
Right, the head twit, the one who “doesn’t need” to ever consult with domain experts from his own companies, because he “knows” he’s right about everything anyway…
Replacing a notable, at this point ingrained part of modern internet culture, to the letter “X” LMAO. Elon just doing whatever to stay in the headlines.
Not necessarily, more like GoDaddy was the domain swatter that was holding on to that domain until Musk decided to pay the ransom. We cannot tell from the screenshot what registrar he uses for that domain now.
We can, however, tell from whois, and what do you know, it’s godaddy…
