Internet Sleuths Go Crazy When Elon Musk Screenshot Reveals Potential Burner Account

Twitter CEO Elon Musk asked, "Do you like Japanese girls?" a user requesting the accidental opening of their secret account may inadvertently trace the screenshot.

Since acquiring the social media platform last fall, the tech giant has regularly shared its efforts to transform and improve it with the public on a public forum that users love. One such update was the addition of a subscription service, while Musk highlighted what he showed as a subaccount profile picture.

“Creators may want to enable subscriptions on this platform,” he wrote on Monday evening, pointing to the Pro Tools menu on his profile to select “Monetization.” "Click "Earn" in the settings."

Observers quickly noticed the second photo to the right of her profile picture with her youngest son X Æ A-Xii and started looking for alternative accounts.

This was followed shortly after by an "Elon Test" profile with the same description, which was created in November 2022, shortly after Musk bought Twitter.

Many of the account's tweets seem to be written from the point of view of a child, with one tweet posted on Monday reading "Finally turning 3 on May 4th!" Musk's birthday boy and real-life artist Grimes and another user asked what nightclubs they've been to before: "I wish I was old enough to go to a nightclub. They look so fun."

On May 4, I will finally turn 3 years old!

One of the strangest tweets from an alleged pirate account was posted on the second day of the event, when Elon Test replied to someone mentioning the nickname of bitcoin developer Satoshi Nakamoto: “Do you like Japanese?” Girls?"

Do you like Japanese girls?

During Musk's tenure as Twit-in-Chief, there were occasional crashes when users reported changes to the visibility of their posts. Based on a series of posts from late November to early December, Elon Test lamented the lack of followers: “Only one person followed me (sigh),” said, “Hey, please follow me!” and "Can anyone come for me for God's sake?" Many have speculated that Musk uses the account to control what is and isn't visible and how users interact with it.

It's worth noting that when the tech mogul posted a joke about alleged scammer Sam Bankman-Fried with a satirical image from a porn site, a second suspicious account also responded to Musk's verified account: "A man fucks 5 million people at the same time."

The test account replied, “Is this a video of a real person?”

Attention: language

Is this a real Peon video?

While Musk hasn't specifically confirmed if he owns the Elon Test account, he told the user who pointed out the existence of the alternate profile, "You'll never guess it's me!" he reacted by saying

You would never guess it was me!
