CTOnews.com, July 5 (Xinhua)-- last week, Twitter boss Elon Musk announced that Twitter would implement a "temporary reading restriction" policy, with a daily limit of 1000 tweets for regular users (500,000 for new users). The maximum number of accounts that buy a monthly Twitter Blue subscription service for $8 (CTOnews.com Note: currently about 58 yuan), get authentication through the organization or be forcibly authenticated by Musk is 10000.

Tu Yuan Pexels's sudden decision aroused the resentment of a large number of Twitter users. Today, Twitter posted a post on his blog to better explain this behavior and future plans.

In order to ensure the authenticity of the user base of our platform, we must take extreme measures to remove spam and robots from the platform. This is why we temporarily restrict user use so that we can detect and eliminate robots and other bad behavior that are harming the platform. If the action is announced in advance, they will take measures to circumvent the test.

Twitter claims that the robots are grabbing Twitter user data for the "AI model" and that the robots "manipulate people and conversations on the platform in a variety of ways". However, the company did not say which organizations are using robots for AI data modeling.

Twitter stressed that this restriction affects only "a small number of people who use the platform" and has "minimal" impact on its advertising platform. In addition, the company hinted that it would return to normal when the work was completed.
