Elon Musk: Commercial Users, Govt To Pay For Twitter

The billionaire founder of Tesla, Elon Musk on Wednesday disclosed that Twitter commercial and government users may have to pay to use the micro-blogging platform.

Musk disclosed this in a post on his official Twitter handle.

He, however, said the microblogging platform would always be free for “casual users”.

Justifying his move to commercialise the platform for commercial and government users in a series of tweets, the billionaire entrepreneur said free services led to the downfall of great businesses.

He wrote, “Twitter will always be free for casual users, but maybe a slight cost for commercial/government users.

The entrepreneur in a reply to a tweet added, “Some revenue is better than none!”

Ultimately, the downfall of the Freemasons was giving away their stonecutting services for nothing
