Twitter’s new changes after the takeover of this social network by Elon Musk

After acquiring Twitter, Elon Musk has considered various programs for this social network. Twitter’s new owner is now pursuing plans to send encrypted messages on the social network. In a meeting that was held on Monday, November 30, at Twitter’s head office, he announced:

“We want to give users the ability to communicate without worrying about their privacy and not having to worry about data breaches on Twitter. “Users should be able to easily communicate with each other on this social network and not worry about someone spying on them on Twitter.”

In 2018, Twitter warned that a number of users’ direct messages had been accessed by some people for more than a year. Now Elon Musk, as the new owner of this social network, plans to solve this problem by encrypting direct messages, preventing other people from accessing users’ messages as much as possible.

Over the past years, Twitter has tried to make this happen several times, but for various reasons, the encrypted Direct Messenger program has been delayed. But now Musk wants to make encryption a top priority for Twitter 2.0. “It has to be done in such a way that when a person wants to look at a user’s direct message, they think they have a gun to their head,” he told employees on Monday.
