After getting X, which was previously known as Twitter, Elon Musk has made multiple major changes in the social media platform. The tech tycoon bought the social media platform for a whopping $ 44 Billion in last October.
Musk has introduced a paid premium option, he fired thousands of employs, cut content moderation and restored formally banned accounts, including the account of former U.S President Donald Trump.
According to figures X has lost roughly half of its advertising revenue. Bots- accounts run by computer programs are more then accounts run by humans. These bot- accounts are a source of spreading political messages and racial discrimination agendas.
On Monday in a discussion with Elon Musk, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu raised the concern of bot- accounts spreading anti- Semitism and how X will prevent from bot- accounts.
On this Elon Musk replied that the company is planning to implement a monthly fee for users for using X system. He said this is the only way he can control bot- accounts.
Musk further added that bots cost only a few cents, like tenth of one cent and by imposing a few dollars of monthly fee it’ll be a high amount for bot- accounts to generate automated messages. This can control a lot of political and racial hatred messages and campaigns.
The Tesla tycoon has been on tip of lots of controversies as he is never shy of making debatable statements.
