According to Twitter owner Elon Musk, Twitter is planning to purge accounts.

Elon Musk announced a plan on Monday to purge all old Twitter accounts that haven’t seen any activity in years.

Elon Musk yesterday threatened to reassign NPR's Twitter account to "another company" if the media organization doesn't start tweeting again.

After all, who would news companies rather trust their revenue to than the guy who calls them a “relentless hatestream”?

A Deepfake Did It!

Twitter ‘gifted’ the checkmark back to its top 10k most followed users and the top 10k most followed brands. Even though many of the stars have said that they don’t want it, and despite it potentially also being illegal, as the tick now represents an unapproved endorsement of a product. This way Twitter hopes to maintain a level of credibility and interest in its subscription revenue push.

Viele Prominente wollen sich von Twitter nicht beschenken lassen.

Elon Musk is handing out Twitter checkmarks for nothing, but that doesn’t mean the celebrities actually want them.

As Twitter’s legacy blue checks flickered out of existence, CEO Elon Musk personally paid for three celebrities (William Shatner, Stephen King, and LeBron James) to keep their verification.

Twitter CEO Elon Musk is now forcing advertisers that don’t meet a certain spend threshold to pay for verification to run ads on the platform, sending marketers into chaos without time to prepare.

Musk announced, that only verified Twitter accounts would be eligible to vote in polls starting April 15. Also, only verified accounts will be shown on Twitter's For You page, which displays a stream of tweets from recommended contents on Twitter.

Seit der Übernahme durch Elon Musk ist es für die Medienaufsichten schwieriger geworden, Twitters Einhaltung deutscher Gesetze zu überprüfen - oder überhaupt jemanden zu erreichen.

If you’re a reporter reaching out to Twitter’s PR department, you’ll now be greeted with an automated response in the form of a poop emoji.
