Elon Musk rolls out pay wall causing uproar among developers From Financial Times

The shake up is the latest turmoil to hit Twitter since Musk bought the platform for $44bn in October. The billionaire has already alienated a large swath of advertisers with his content moderation approach, as well as some of Twitter’s most powerful users over his plans to charge $8 a month for its “blue tick” verification. In March, Musk said Twitter’s finances are improving to the point the social media company could return to posting positive cash flow next quarter. But the company remains on the hook for $1.5bn of annual interest payments on $13bn of debt he used to fund the acquisition
Kg; He DID NOT buy it with his own money and now debt service is stupendous. In past I could ask Google specific Qs such as "at wh gate will flight -- leave on -- at -- airport" and get correct instant answers. Or "C-drama XYZ ep 1 eng sub. I don't think I will pay $8 per month.
