Twitter limits reading to one thousand posts per day! Musk imposes a strict limit on Twitter reading, while Binance

Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla and board member of Twitter, announced in the early hours of July 1st that Twitter has implemented some temporary reading restrictions to combat extreme data scraping and system manipulation. This move has caused a stir among individuals in the cryptocurrency community who are accustomed to information overload.

Elon Musk Sets Daily Twitter Reading Limit

Elon Musk initially announced that Twitter has implemented some temporary restrictions to address extreme data scraping and system manipulation:

  1. Verified accounts can read up to 6,000 tweets per day
  2. Unverified accounts are limited to 600 tweets
  3. New unverified accounts are limited to 300 tweets

Currently, despite being a verified account, many have reported reaching the reading limit, but Musk later changed the policy.
