If he starts charging everyone that will accelerate the process. I wold think that everyone would move to Threads, which needs something like Musk doing something stupid like this to accelerate their growth.

Photo: Turkish Presidency/AP Elon Musk said he's moving to require all users to pay a monthly fee to use his social media site X, formerly Twitter, Axios' Sara Fischer reports. Why it matters: The comments, which Musk made during a live-streamed event on X with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, come as the company struggles to regain trust with advertisers. Netanyahu brought up the large armies of bots that amplify hate speech. Musk replied: "The single most important reason we're moving to having a small monthly payment for use of the X system is it's the only way I can think of to combat vast armies of bots." Musk said adding a subscription would make it much more difficult for bots to create accounts, because each bot would need to register a new credit card. He added that the company plans to come out with "a lower tier pricing" than it currently charges X Premium subscribers — around $8 monthly. 🥊 Reality check: Musk has often teased new products or innovations, only to change course. Share this story. LOL, good luck with that. It's not worth paying for unless you are trying to build your brand. I know I'm never paying for it. I can live with getting my baseball news a few hours after everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smr-nj Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Bob & his stupid ass wife should go to jail. and I don’t want to hear any bull**** like “well let’s see what happens during the trial“. He should resign today, and he and his idiot wife should shut their mouth, go to trial, and then go straight off to the orange jumpsuits. I’m sick of this ****. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewsieg Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 This Menendez crap is BS. This keeps up and before you know it no congressperson will be able to sell their power/votes to the highest bidder. Isn't this America? I thought this was America.

smr-nj Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Cory Booker calls for Menendez to resign. I am a very big Booker fan (as some of you know), and I actually sent him a message yesterday kind of imploring him to call for Menendez’s resignation. I MUST BE AN INFLUENCER! 😂😂 Anyway, am glad Cory B did this today. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
