Diksia.com - CALIFORNIA, Google is no longer able to show tweets from Twitter users in its search results after Elon Musk imposed restrictions on Twitter users.

Google spokeswoman Lara Levin explained that the removal of Twitter tweets from the Google search page was due to the blue bird image social media banning crawlers from accessing the platform.

“We recognize that our ability to crawl Twitter.com has limitations, which impacts our ability to show tweets and pages from this site in search results,” Levin said.

It is not yet known exactly when Google will be able to display tweets again, but Levin emphasized that it is very likely that Google will be able to crawl the Twitter page again if the restrictions imposed by Elon Musk are lifted.

Tweet Blocking Policy

Elon Musk’s move to restrict the tweets read by Twitter users was originally intended to prevent excessive data mining and manipulation of the system by unscrupulous individuals.

“Several hundred organizations are aggressively handling Twitter data in ways that are degrading the actual user experience,” Musk said.

This change is part of Twitter monetization. With this limit, unverified accounts can only see 600 tweets per day.

Now, new, unverified accounts have the freedom to view 300 tweets per day, and verified accounts have access to a maximum of 6,000 tweets per day.

Unfortunately, this policy has sparked controversy and harsh criticism from the public. Many Twitter users have complained that they can no longer see tweets after reaching the limit.

Though this ban is temporary, some experts predict the ban on tweets could have a renewed impact on Twitter’s ad revenue, which has plummeted over the past year due to controversial policies like suspensions of several Twitter accounts of prominent journalists and layoffs. thousands of workers.

Mike Proulx, director of Forrester Research, called this restriction a very bad move because it could cause advertisers to suffer a lapse of trust.

In line with Proulx, former Bank of America chief marketing officer Lou Paskalis called the restrictions imposed by Musk an attempt to destroy Twitter’s ad revenue.
