Elon Musk introduces temporary new rules and limits to Twitter

Twitter has brought in temporary reading limits for all users, Elon Musk has announced.

Mr Musk, who owns the social media platform, said unverified accounts would only be able to view up to 600 posts per day under the new measures. Meanwhile, verified accounts will be limited to reading 6,000 posts in a 24-hour period.

Newly unverified accounts can only read 300 posts per day, Mr Musk said in a statement. He added that the restrictions had been put in place 'to address extreme levels of data scraping and system manipulation'.
