Elon Musk, founder of X, announced Monday that the social media giant could soon be implementing a paywall for its users, requiring a "small monthly payment" of a few dollars to continue using the service. This is in an effort to combat the "vast armies of bots" that can be used to amplify hateful speech. The news has been met with mixed reactions from users, with some in favor and some concerned about the cost. It remains to be seen when the paywall will be implemented and what the exact details of the plan will be.
