    Subliminal messaging has never convincingly been shown to work outside of specific laboratory conditions.

        Superliminal advertising is way more effective.

      I think it’s called X because of Space X. Which follows simpleton Microsoft pattern of thinking basic numbers and letters are somehow “cool” - Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One. With the next one everyone’s mind will explode.

        It’s called X because that was the name of his first company before PayPal bough it. He wants X to be an ‘everything app’ including banking. It will fail.
