The band Muse has surrendered its Instagram and X handles to Meta after the release of its new AI agent, Muse.
The English rock band Muse has been renamed on Instagram and X from “Muse” to “museband.”
Despite the band Muse having had its Instagram account since 2012 and its X account since 2008, it has seemingly surrendered the handle to Mark Zuckerberg’s newest AI agent.
Probably Meta paid them off. I bet the band wasn't even involved, probably Meta negotiated with the marketing division of the record label.
Every one of those sites reserved the right to take your username for any reason. They don't need to pay them off, it's in the user agreement
As if pr isn't a thing
