X's new head of product, Nikita Bier, said he got the job by posting his way to the top. Bier said he spends "every waking hour" on X. In 2022, he tweeted at Elon Musk asking for the product head role. Nikita Bier, a Los Angeles-based entrepreneur, posted a picture on X on Monday with the platform's owner, Elon Musk, writing about how he landed his new appointment. "While I already spend every waking hour on this app, I'll now be spending that time helping others unlock that same value," he said in the post.

The appointment was a long time coming for Bier — he has had his eye on the role for more than three years. In April 2022, shortly after Musk took over X — which was then called Twitter — Bier tweeted at Musk asking for the role: "@elonmusk Hire me to run Twitter as VP of Product."

GameStop agrees to $4.5 million settlement: How to make a claim
If you purchased a video game from GameStop in the last five years, you may be eligible for part of a multi-million-dollar settlement. The electronics and gaming company agreed to pay $4.5 million in the class-action lawsuit Alejandro Aldana and Scott Gallie v. GameStop, Inc., which alleged that the company shared customers' personal information without consent. According to the suit, GameStop shared online video game customers' personally identifiable information, which can include any details that can be traced back to an initial, like a date of birth, to Facebook via the Facebook Tracking Pixel (now known as Meta Pixel). Marketers use the data-gathering tool to collect information to target users with content and ads. Like with many settlements, GameStop did not admit fault as part of the agreement. Who qualifies for a payment in the GameStop settlement? Consumers who bought a video game from the GameStop website between Aug. 18, 2020 and April 17, 2025 are eligible for part of the payout if they were a member of Facebook and had a public profile using their actual name at the time of purchase. Eligible customers can opt for a cash payment up to $5 or a voucher of up to $10 for use on GameStop's website. How to submit a claim Those who qualify must submit an online form by Aug. 15, 2025 to claim payment. More information and the claim form can be found on the class action settlement website. The form requires that claimants provide their full name, address, email, phone number and proof of ownership of a Facebook account via a link or screenshot.
