Elon Musk says X will keep ad revenue from content creators who don't have a Blue premium subscription.....lolololol

[lightbright]

The SS Twitter...........

• Elon Musk said X will keep ad revenue from content creators who don't have a premium subscription.
• Creators need at least 500 followers and 15 million impressions in the last three months to be eligible.
• X rolled out its ads revenue-sharing program last month — and some users have reported big payouts.

Elon Musk said that content creators on X, formerly known as Twitter, have to be premium subscribers to be eligible for its new ads revenue-sharing program.

"The ad money will otherwise be kept by X if you are not an X Premium (Blue) subscriber," Musk said in a post.

To be eligible for the program, creators also need to be at least 18 years old, have a minimum of 500 followers, and have 15 million or more "organic impressions" on posts within the last three months.

The price of an X premium subscription starts at $8 per month, or $84 a year, and it gives users access to extra features such as "Edit."

In another tweet on Saturday, Musk said the program had "far exceeded" expectations and that there would be delays in processing the funds.

X rolled out its ads revenue-sharing program last month. Musk said the first block of payments to creators totalled $5 million, with some users reporting substantial payouts.

Controversial influencer Andrew Tate, who is facing rape and human trafficking charges in Romania, was among the first group of influencers to say they got a big payout, posting last month that he had received $20,379.

Dogecoin co-founder Billy Markus, who has around 2.1 million followers on the platform, posted that he was going to receive $37,050 from the program.

"i like twitter," he wrote.

X replied to Insider's request for comment with an automated response that said: "We'll get back to you soon."

Man, in a perfect world, this grifting bitch would have booked a trip on that tin can that imploded going down to the titanic. But no, he is going to troll folks until he actually wins. They won't just get the fuck off the fucking platform and let twitter, X, or whatever the fuck it is called die.

Grifting bitch is trolling the U.S., but seems to be on some global moves in the background.

Elon Musk Pledges to Pay Legal Bills With ‘No Limit’ for Anyone ‘Unfairly Treated’ By Their Employer Over a Tweet​

If you were ever treated unfairly by your boss because of something you said on Twitter, then Elon Musk may owe you some money.

The billionaire owner of X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, said that he would fund the legal bill for individuals who were “unfairly treated” by their employer because of posts they made on the platform.

“If you were unfairly treated by your employer due to posting or liking something on this platform, we will fund your legal bill,” Musk tweeted, adding there would be “no limit” to the financial compensation.



Musk describes himself as an advocate of free speech and criticized Twitter over how the former owners and administrations handled censorship on the platform.

After purchasing Twitter last year, Musk stated, “free speech is the bedrock of a functioning democracy, and Twitter is the digital town square where matters vital to the future of humanity are debated.”

Since taking over the platform, the Tesla CEO has made a variety of changes, including its name — firing most of the company’s employees, and instituting new features behind a paywall.

Trump Jr. Asks Elon Musk 'Where Do I Send The Bill?' After Latter Promises To Pay Legal Fees For Unfairly Treated Users​

Amidst allegations of “hate speech” rising on Elon Musk’s Twitter, now rebranded as “X,” the tech billionaire’s latest announcement has received widespread attention from netizens and famous figures alike, including Donald Trump Jr.

What Happened: On Sunday, Musk pledged to cover the legal expenses of users who face unfair treatment from employers due to their posts or likes on the platform. His post implied that he intends to defend free speech and protect users from potential consequences of expressing opinions on his social media platform.

The announcement attracted the attention of Trump Jr., who asked Musk where he should send the bill because he has a “big one.”



Billy Markus, the co-founder of Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) and popularly known as Shibetoshi Nakamoto, also lauded Musk’s announcement, exclaiming, “dude, that is sick.”



Many other users in the comment section shared Musk’s sentiment and said that true free speech could not be achieved if users constantly feared losing their jobs, facing legal action, or being subjected to censorship due to their online posts.

Why It’s Important: Musk’s latest announcements came after X Corp filed a lawsuit against the Center for Countering Digital Hate or CCDH, an organization known for critiquing the platform’s handling of hate speech under the tech mogul’s leadership.

In response, the CCDH said it remained committed to independent research and campaigns against online hate and vowed not to be silenced.
