NYU professor says locked out of his X account after row with Elon Musk

tech.hindustantimes.com:

Billionaire Elon Musk has been dominating the headlines this week due to his antics around the ‘big fight' with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg that is just not refusing to get finalized and both men are blaming each other for the delay. However, the X (formerly Twitter) owner has reportedly found himself in another fight (the non-physical type), and this time it is with New York University's Professor Scott Galloway. The professor is also an author, public speaker, and the owner of an X account with a massive 560,000 followers. However, recently the professor has made some shocking allegations against Musk.

A report by Business Insider states that Galloway got into a row with the billionaire entrepreneur recently, but the details of the event are not known entirely. Later, the professor posted this message on his Threads account, “A mutual friend reached out and said Elon feels “unfairly attacked,” by me, and wants to meet. I declined. 2 days later I was locked out of X”.

This bizarre incident is an ongoing incident as the NYU professor later posted, “Still locked out, 17 days”. So, based on his words, it has been more than 2 weeks and he has not been able to access his account where he had accumulated a community of half a million users.

We have not been able to independently verify the allegations. However, as others pointed out, his posts on X would not return any results when looked up using the search tool.

We were able to locate Galloway's account on X and it turns out he has been a vocal critic of Musk on the platform. His most recent post about the entrepreneur was on July 28, where he tweeted, “Tesla intentionally gave drivers rosy driving range projections, leaving many stranded. BUT you should totally bank with X”.
