Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>The unauthorized installation of a giant X sign on the roof of Elon Musk’s Twitter headquarters is being challenged by San Francisco building inspectors.<\/p>\n

According to Patrick Hannan, building inspector spokesman, permission from the California city\u2019s planning commission and a building permit are both required in order to ensure the sign’s structural integrity and safe installation, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.<\/p>\n

The department said that the necessary permissions were not given for removal of the \u201c@twitter\u201d letters previously found on the building, and the newly installed X sign is also a security concern.<\/p>\n

Last week Elon Musk said that he intends to change Twitter’s logo to an “X” from the iconic and beloved blue bird.\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b<\/p>\n

\u201cIf a good enough X logo is posted tonight, we\u2019ll make go live worldwide tomorrow,\u201d said Musk, who last year bought the social media website for $44 billion, followed by a plunge in its value, with advertisers fleeing and users complaining of controversial changes.\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b\u200b<\/p>\n
