Absolutely.
They can probably trade mark it for social media (unless someone already has), but are highly unlikely to be able to trademark it broadly, which clearly is the intention.

They could also apply for multiple trademarks with small additions if they launch a new product:

Unicode already contains exactly it, it's a mathematical/scientific symbol, even if they did get the trademark in that category (which I doubt) they will never be able to enforce it. With trade marks, if you don't successfully protect them, you loose them.
𝕏 is a pre-existing symbol used by, and part of a standard character set for, software. You could probably get a trademark on it for a company selling apples, but I highly doubt you could for a software company.
"used by" is pretty debatable. Its a fairly obscure character. I don't think being in unicode by itself is sufficient enough to count.
Or to any number of business domains. See the trademark registration for "Wagatha Christie":
