In the Philippines and New Zealand, new users of the social network bought by Elon Musk must now pay one dollar per year to publish and react to publications, the platform announced.
Free Twitter, it’s almost over. To fight once morest fake accounts, the social network, renamed X by Elon Musk, has started to implement a compulsory subscription for new users in the Philippines and New Zealand. The latter must now pay a dollar to publish tweets and react (comment, like, share) to other publications, we can read in a press release.
New users from the Philippines and New Zealand will have to pay approximately $0.75 and $0.85 respectively each year to access basic network functions.
Basic functions
Those who refuse to pay these amounts will have access to the “only” “reading” function of the platform, that is to say watching videos or following accounts.
This is “to evaluate a potentially powerful measure to help us fight once morest bots and spammers on X, while balancing the accessibility of the platform with the low amount of the fee”, adds the network.
Users already registered in the two countries concerned are not affected by the measure.
Since his acquisition of Twitter at the end of October 2022 for $44 billion, Elon Musk has made a series of controversial changes within teams and in the products offered.
