X To Implement Charges For Posting And Reposting

X, formerly Twitter, now charges new users in the Philippines and New Zealand around $0.75 and $0.85 annually for essential features, such as posting content.

Those who opt not to pay will have access to a “read-only” version, allowing them to view posts, watch videos, and follow accounts but not create content.

This measure aims to combat spam, manipulation, and bot activity on the platform. Current users in these countries remain unaffected by this alteration.

The platform’s ownership shifted to billionaire Elon Musk last year, and he has introduced several contentious changes to address issues like fake accounts and spammers.

Musk even proposed imposing a small fee on all users to address these problems, which elicited mixed reactions from users worldwide.
