After acquiring the social media platform, Tesla chief Musk has been suggesting a raft of changes to Twitter since last month. He has spoken about enhancing the platform width new features, making the algorithms open source to increase trust, defeating spam bots, and authenticating all humans.

Last month, even before reaching a deal with Twitter, Musk had suggested few changes to the Twitter Blue premium subscription service, including slashing its price.
