He emphasised that implementing a small fee for new users to post content is the most effective solution to combat the persistent issue of bot activity.
Musk said the measure addresses the relentless onslaught of bots plaguing the platform. By introducing a nominal fee for new user write access, X hopes to deter automated accounts and ensure a more authentic and engaging experience for all users.
