For context, I came across this because I was interested in how they came to acquire the Twitter four-letter twitter handle @meta, which I wrote about here

Turns out it's harvested from the Meta company linked here that the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative acquired. Before that the @meta handle was held by an early twitter user fro. Turkey.

This is basically the unremarkable story of the "been on Twitter since 2010" profile with handle @meta.
