$8 offer instead of $20
Stephen King has expressed anger at the upcoming changes to Twitter – rumor has it that the company will require verified accounts (with a tick) to purchase a Twitter Blue subscription, or the account verification mark will be removed. In addition, the social network will increase the price of a paid subscription from $4.99 to $20. King said he had to pay him for the platform to be on the site and threatened to close his account.
Musk said that the platform had to pay its bills somehow and that the company could not rely solely on revenue from advertisers. He also offered to raise the price to $8 instead of $20. In addition, he promised that he would explain the reasons for the decision before implementing the changes, stating that this would help combat trolls and bots on Twitter.
