Musk explained that the move is the most efficient way to tackle the issue of bots.
However, the CEO of X did not clarify when the subscription would be introduced or how much a low-tier subscription would cost.
The introduction of a subscription plan will help curb users who create fake or bot accounts, which post misinformation, propaganda, and scams.
Currently, the website and app are free to use, except for X Premium users who have to pay eight dollars a month.
Other social media applications also have issues with bots, however, Musk fired various employees who could solve these issues.
Putting X behind a paywall is not a new idea. The idea has been floating around since November 2022.
X users will soon get to know when the subscription will be implemented and what the costs are for using X!
