Jakarta –
Bos Tesla Elon Musk has officially purchased the popular social media platform, Twitter. This means he became the new owner of Twitter.
He has made many plans and policy changes for the social media, one of which is that every tweet embed will be charged.
Launching from EngadetMusk will charge users who embed or quote tweets from verified accounts on Twitter.
But long before Musk officially bought Twitter, the feature has changed the way embeds work. Where Twitter has changed some JavaScript so that tweets embedded in a number of sites have started to disappear.
However, users can still do other things by taking screenshots of tweets rather than embedding them directly on the site.
Musk’s plan to charge tweet embed fees is said to be his way of getting a return on investment after buying Twitter shares worth $44 billion, or about 629.2 trillion.
It is known that to get that amount of money, Musk got a loan of USD 13 billion from Twitter and a USD margin loan of USD 12.5 billion from Tesla shares and the rest was paid with Musk’s personal money.
Thus Musk did many ways to increase Twitter profits. Not only the cost of embedding previous tweets, Musk will reportedly change the Twitter Blue service.
Musk suggested a number of changes to the Twitter Blue subscription service, including cutting prices, banning ads, and providing the option to pay in the cryptocurrency Dogecoin. The service itself now costs USD 2.99 or around Rp. 43,430) per month.
Even Musk is openly considering removing the board of directors salaries, which would save the company about $3 million a year in finances.
