Tesla Boss Elon Musk acquired the social media giant Twitter after a lot of twists and turns. The negotiations and talks went on for a few months and he finally acquired Twitter. Ever since Twitter came into his hands, Elon Musk has been making many changes to the platform.

However, the changes he brought are getting mixed responses. No matter what, Elon Musk is going forward with the changes he wants to bring. Going by the same, he brought another big change.

As per the media reports, the X platform is now equipped with the option of restricting who can really to the posts. It is said that only the verified accounts can reply while the non-verified accounts cannot reply to the posts.

The new change can shield the trolling and abuse on X by a portion as only the verified accounts can reply. We have seen how toxic social media has become for female celebrities who are often targeted for the photos they share. Those who have an account can drop a reply.

But the status quo had reportedly changed with Elon Musk making only the verified accounts eligible to reply to the posts. However, there is also a sharp criticism that the move might be aimed at attracting more users to become verified accounts.

Elon Musk spent a big amount of money on buying Twitter and he is exploring all the possible options to get the money back. As a big blow, he proposed the plan of charging a certain amount to get the verified tick.

Many say that just like the blue tick marks, the new option is also aimed at encouraging more people to pay the money to get verification so that they can enjoy the perks that come with the blue ticks for accounts.
