The majority of Twitter Blue's original subscribers have unsubscribed


According to a recent source, Twitter Blue was able to sign up about 640,000 new customers after CEO Elon Musk unveiled the new subscription plan in November. Only about 68,157 of the roughly 150,000 early Twitter Blue subscribers had persisted through the end of April.

Only 150,000 people signed up for Twitter Blue when it first launched in November, according to internal documents obtained by the Washington Post last year. Musk then disabled new signups after people started impersonating people and brands on the social media platform.

Approximately 81,843 individuals, or 54.5 percent, of Twitter users who first signed up for Twitter Blue are no longer subscribed, according to a research by Mashable. According to a survey conducted by the subscription management company Recurly, the average annual churn rate for subscription-based businesses is only 5.57 percent.


According to a previous Gizmodo story, many former Twitter Blue subscribers were unable to cancel their subscriptions even after failing to make payments for months.

The proportion of Twitter Blue subscribers with few followers has remained largely stable, according to the most recent data from last month on the social media site. This explains why so many Twitter Blue subscribers continue to show up, either as a result of the premium function of algorithm boost on the For You timeline or simply as a result of continuing to receive service features even after cancelling the subscription.

Biden discusses the risks of AI with the CEOs of Microsoft and Google

On Thursday, President Joe Biden met with the CEOs of some of the largest AI firms, including Microsoft and Alphabet's Google, and emphasised the need for them to make sure their technologies are secure before they are used. The popularity of apps like ChatGPT has made the term "generative artificial intelligence" popular this year, spurring a rush among businesses to release comparable products they hope would alter the nature of work. Millions of users have started experimenting with these tools, whose proponents claim can make medical diagnoses, write screenplays, create legal briefs, and debug software. As a result, there is growing worry that the technology could result in privacy violations, skew employment decisions, and be used in power scams and misinformation campaigns. The hazards that AI poses to people, society, and national security were discussed by Biden, who has used ChatGPT and experimented with it, according to the White House. T...

Online Safety Bill age checks won’t be done by Wikipedia

According to its foundation, Wikipedia will not submit to any age verifications mandated by the Online Safety Bill. It would "violate our commitment to collect minimal data about readers and contributors," according to Rebecca MacKinnon of the Wikimedia Foundation, which sponsors the website. A senior member of Wikimedia UK is concerned that the website might be blocked as a result. However, according to the government, only services that pose the greatest risk to children will require age verification. There are millions of entries on Wikipedia, created and edited by tens of thousands of volunteers from all over the world in hundreds of different languages. According to information from analytics company SimilarWeb, it is the seventh most popular website in the UK. The Online Safety Bill, which is presently before Parliament, will completely take effect sometime in 2024 and requires digital companies to safeguard users from harmful or illegal informat...
