Elon Musk: Social media platform X, formerly Twitter, could go behind paywall

The billionaire suggested the social media platform, now called X, could charge for use of "the system".
www.bbc.com

Please let this happen......then we can have some sweet relief from the re-posting of "opinions" from random dull nobodies that others follow & decide they want to share for unfathomable reasons.....

hopefully a paywall leads to the swift death of twitter.

A huge cyber attack & data grab on tiktok & facebook would be lovely too........come on hackers....do something for the real people

It's great that we've got a world economy skewed towards the perpetual enrichment of the already extremely wealthy, I can't see any bad coming from it

I refuse to believe that anyone who posts regularly on here doesn’t actually love reading terrible opinions on social media

It’ll never happen. Would kill Twitter dead. Look at what the blue tick charge has done.

Never underestimate the stupidity and arrogance of obscenely rich narcissists (see also, Trump). Here's hoping...

Musk has a long history of floating/promising big changes to his companies that never actually happen and I expect this to be one of them.

I feel like you're giving him too much credit. He memed himself into having to buy it and is now just implementing whatever features will leave a predominant userbase of people who like him
