“What Happens When You Reach 6k Posts? Does the App Just Turn Off?”: NFL Analysts and Journos Summon Elon Musk’s Temporary Cap

Twitter CEO Elon Musk certainly knows how to stir up a storm amongst users of the social media platform. He is not just the CEO of Twitter, but also the world’s richest man, and uses his power and position to that effect. Ever since Musk took over Twitter, he’s been changing the policies now and then. Most recently, he changed the regulations regarding Twitter verification, making it an $8 dollar subscription to be verified on the platform. This also led to 2X Super Bowl champion Patrick Mahomes calling out Elon Musk on Twitter, after he also lost and got back his verification following the drive against removing verification badges from unsubscribed users.

And now, the world’s richest man has caused a public outcry once again. This time, Elon Musk has gone on to put a temporary cap on certain functioning on Twitter, which is a unique decision in itself.

Elon Musk and his latest Twitter announcement 

The CEO of Twitter is known for his unpredictable nature when it comes to handling the social media platform. Elon Musk acquired the social media platform from founder Jack Dorsey last year in October and has now come forward with a new set of rules imposed on his users.

In a recent tweet, Musk stated that they have now applied temporary restrictions on Twitter users in order to address the concerns of “extreme level of data scraping & system manipulation”. According to the new rules, verified Twitter accounts can read only 6000 posts per day. On the other hand, unverified users are limited to 600 posts per day and new unverified users can access only 300 posts per day.

Streamer IShowSpeed’s content manager asked, “what happens when you reach 6k posts does the app just turn off”

Streamer Asmongold said was not in favor of the new rules, commenting, “This is bad”

Journalist Mindy Robinson said, “Why? Any limit on what people can read or learn is a form of censorship. The last thing this world needs is more censorship.”
