Linda Yaccarino briefly loses verified X checkmark after CEO departure

X Corp’s CEO Linda Yaccarino looks on during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on online child sexual exploitation at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, U.S., January 31, 2024.

Ex-X CEO Linda Yaccarino is still @lindayaX on the social media site, but she briefly lost the blue checkmark next to her account name.

The X Help Center notes that the site “may remove the checkmark of an account at any time without notice.”

Yaccarino announced she was leaving the position on Wednesday. The blue checkmark that is bestowed upon verified, X Premium accounts was removed from Yaccarino’s profile after the announcement of her departure. The blue checkmark reappeared on Yaccarino’s account Thursday evening.

Yaccarino did not give a reason for her departure. X didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Elon Musk, the owner of X and parent company xAI, thanked Yaccarino Wednesday following her announcement.

TechCrunch was first to report on the missing blue checkmark.

Yaccarino has continued to be active on the app, celebrating the return of McDonald’s Snack Wrap and sharing a thinking face emoji in response to a post about a Justice Department review of Jeffrey Epstein records.

Yaccarino’s departure came a day after Musk’s artificial intelligence chatbot Grok went on a posting spree of antisemitic comments and praise for Adolf Hitler. The posts have since been removed, and xAI officially rolled out a Grok 4 update.

Musk announced Yaccarino as CEO of X in May 2023, months after acquiring what was then known as Twitter for $44 billion.

Yaccarino previously worked at NBCUniversal, the parent company of CNBC.
