Elon Musk sets new daily Twitter limits for users

I am already seeing some sports teams Twitter accounts appearing with black screen with error messages showing “Rate exceeding limit….”
And those are actual pro sports teams official Twitter accounts such Yankees, Mets, Pirates, Giants in both MLB and also NFL.
Expect those accounts to be eventually dropped over next several weeks. Businesses and government run operations won’t be putting up with this stuff. Time to relocate to another site that isn’t run by an egomaniac.
One could guess Musk is intentionally doing this as a favor to countries that are dictatorships such as Saudi Arabia. Probably some money changing hands behind the scenes to defray monetary loss.
Twitter was used by common users and had to be shut down by those in power, dictators, oligarch run governments etc.
Maybe NASA should rethink about awarding contracts to SpaceX in the future? Should cease doing business with a questionable, but possibly mentally unstable individual?
