US billionaire Elon Musk has flagged the possibility of introducing a monthly subscription fee for all users of X, which was formerly known as Twitter. Musk raised the possibility of paywalling the popular social media site during a meeting with Elon Musk during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the corporate office of Tesla in California. Musk suggested that a subscription fee would deter so-called ‘bots’, as each automated account would require a separate payment method. It would also help to combat the problem of antisemitism and hate speech on the social media platform.
