X (formerly Twitter) starts charging new users for basic services

Platform The social network, owned by billionaire Elon Musk since last year, said in a statement that the change was aimed at "strengthening" existing policy aimed at reducing spam (unsolicited messages) as well as "manipulation of our platform and bot activity. Users already registered in the two countries concerned are not affected by the measure.

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. 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 bots and spammers on X, while balancing the accessibility of the platform with the low amount of the fee,” adds the network.

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.
