Name Change
Elon Musk: Social media platform X could go behind paywall
Elon Musk has suggested that all users of X, formerly called Twitter, may have to pay for access to the platform.
In a conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the billionaire said a payment system was the only way to counter bots.
"We're moving to having a small monthly payment for use of the system," the Tesla and SpaceX boss said.
Maybe Musk knows what he is doing, but it seems an odd decision - renaming Twitter as X. It has resulted in an array of names such as -
X, formerly called Twitter
X formerly known as Twitter
X/Twitter
Twitter/X
X Corp
Maybe the BBC should also change its name to reflect its priggish global outlook and lack of interest in British people, history and culture.

I use Twitter a lot. It's wall to wall idiots for the main part, so usually good for a laugh. It ain't worth paying for though, even a token amount
Beria Broadcasting, Comrade.
Bucko - I've never used it, but paying for it struck me as risky.
dearieme - a fine idea. Or maybe Beria Broadcasting Collective.
