Twitter's (X) boss Elon Musk has now criticised Ottawa for "crushing free speech" in the country after it made it compulsory for online streaming services to formally register with the government for 'regulatory controls'.
Elon Musk refutes earning $142,690 per minute, emphasizing he loses more when Tesla stock falls. He dismisses such claims as based on "silly metrics," stating that his wealth is primarily tied to stock ownership in companies he co-founded.
To be eligible for the 'ads revenue sharing programme', users must be subscribed to X Premium or Verified Organisations, have a minimum of 5 million organic impressions on their combined posts within the last 3 months, and possess at least 500 followers.
X Corp, led by Elon Musk, has also announced the discontinuation of Circles, a feature allowing users to curate a select group of up to 150 people for specific conversations.
Notably, members within a Circle were unable to retweet any content posted within it, although they retained the ability to capture screenshots or download tweets.
Musk highlights the growing popularity and engagement with long-form content on the platform formerly known as Twitter. It also suggests that X is actively working on improvements and updates to enhance user experience and address user feedback, such as handling inactive accounts and usernames.
X has also introduced a special feature for verified organisations. If an organisation pays $1,000 per month for verification, they can now display job listings on their X profiles using the new X Hiring Beta feature.
This new ID verification system is a major step towards ensuring authenticity and security on the X platform, while also providing additional advantages for its premium users.
Notes automatically display on posts containing a matching image. This proves to be an effective tool for addressing AI-generated images, edited photos, and more.
In addition to this like-hiding feature, X has made other changes. They've renamed tweets as “posts” and retweets as “reposts” in their new terms of service, set to go into effect on September 29.
To comply with the new IT Rules of 2021, major digital platforms like X Corp, with over 5 million users, are required to publish monthly reports detailing their compliance efforts.
Users will now also encounter stricter guidelines regarding data usage. The updated terms explicitly prohibit crawling or scraping of the services without prior written consent from X Corporation.
Currently, anyone can vote in Twitter polls, even if they are not a verified user. This has led to concerns that bots could be used to skew the results of polls or create the illusion of public support for a particular viewpoint.
Ramaswamy is directly competing against former US President Donald Trump, although he has expressed admiration for his policies when he was in power.
The US is seeking “fair consideration and back pay” for those who were barred from or denied employment at SpaceX due to the company's alleged discrimination.
X has boosted the upper limit for participants in its direct message (DM) group chats from 150 to 200, as revealed by Enrique, a product engineer at the company, on Tuesday. Additionally, he dropped hints about forthcoming improvements to DM functionality in the coming week.
Currently, news posts only display a lead image and a web link. Elon Musk has expressed his desire for X to create a new format for displaying news articles, which would also include only a lead image and a link. Musk believes that this change will improve the overall appearance of the news posts.
Several users shared their thoughts regarding Musk's statement. One person praised social network X, while another user made a snarky comment about Mark Zuckerberg's newly launched platform, Threads.
Elon Musk's decision to remove the Block feature from X has ignited a passionate conversation among users. While some see it as a positive shift, others are concerned that it might compromise safety and lead to a less enjoyable experience on the platform.
