Elon Musk approves Ali Zafar’s suggestions
Sharing his opinion, Ali Zafar tweeted, "Bigger incentives for content creators. Go beyond “likes” and “followers”. Enable them to build their own on line digital empires. A world they can create, learn and earn from. Clubs. Rooms. Likeminded people connecting, creating, auctioning, selling, monetising, sharing".
In the continuing tweet, he further asked to change the algorithm of Twitter, to allow content to have a higher reach. "Change the algorithms. A person sitting in U.S should be able to come across content being made in Japan more easily and vice versa. Tweets and content should have a much higher reach and monetisation. Companies can pay for reach, individuals can’t," the singer-actor added.
Agreeing to this, Elon replied said, "True, Twitter has amazing content in Japan – roughly half of all adults online – but it’s almost never seen outside of Japan."

Blue ticks
Musk has recently said that the social media platform would charge $8 per month for its Twitter Blue subscription service, which includes a verified blue tick badge for users. "Twitter's current lords and peasants system for who has or doesn't have a blue checkmark is bullshit. Power to the people! Blue for $8/month," Musk wrote in a tweet, adding that the price will be "adjusted by country proportionate to purchasing power parity".
Musk said that there will be a secondary tag below the name for someone who is a public figure, which is already the case for politicians.
