The #Meta plot thickens! Turns out that #Facebook doesn't actually own the name Meta because it belongs to another company that's currently in stealth mode.
That didn't seem to stop Facebook from publicly announcing the name change and branding, quite the Zuck move.
Meta (the real one) have posted a public letter about this on their front page. I'm linking the Archive copy because the front page will be eventually replaced by an actual website:

@faun the link in my post.
@faun me too, it's been awhile since I've posted it and I'm not on my PC. There might be some discussion on this by now.

@polychrome I mean where did you come across that link. If it was a place with discussion I would like to see the discussion.
