I am aware people were changing their icons to that, which was the intention of the artist, and was noted in the opening statement of the article.
Is it possible the individual had poor wording choice when it came to indicating that she was changing her icon? It's possible. The thing that causes one to read it as hers is the possessive "MY" in the tweet.
In all the tweets you present, particularly the last one, there was just notification but no wording that claimed ownership of the artwork itself. The artist's intention was for it to be used instead of the pure black screens, so the usage is not the issue. It's more an issue that one who used a possessive term that made it read as if the art belonged to her instead of that she was using it for tribute.
Could be an honest mistake, just kind of frustrating because that was the one that Twitter notified me on April 5th of instead of the actual artist's tweet, which the comment of correction in the comments of her Tweet wasn't placed until April 6th.
