On Thursday, Elon Musk, the new owner of Twitter, made a request to users of the micro-blogging site, asking them to reach out in case they are aware of any issues related to child abuse, that needs to be addressed. Elon noted that the elimination of child exploitation is his number one priority.
The billionaire, who is 51 years old, acknowledged a report that said Elon Musk had begun tackling the issue of child labor and exploitation content on Twitter, following years of inaction by the platform, under previous management. In response, Musk was quoted as saying that he had no pity for anyone who would profit off of children in pain .
When a Twitter user by the name Ramz Paul posted a tweet saying “Twitter is reportedly nuking pedo accounts.”, Elon Musk responded by saying “Please reply in comments if you see anything that Twitter needs to address.”
Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter has ushered in a new era for the social media site. Days after completing the $44 billion buyout of the microblogging site, Elon Musk revealed that the blue-tick verification on Twitter will cost users $8 per month, as he looks to create an income stream.
Paywall bypass, priority in answers, mentions, and searches, as well as the option to publish lengthy audio and video, are all included with the $8 monthly fee. However, his major victory lies in the promise of getting rid of bots & spammers from Twitter. Because according to Musk, this new verification system will completely obliterate them.
