Twitter user inquired whether Musk would develop a new phone for the market if Twitter was removed from the Google or Apple app stores, Musk said...
Digital Desk: Do you also think that there is nothing that Tesla and Twitter's new CEO Elon Musk cannot accomplish. Musk may soon release an iPhone and Android competitor.
However, he would only consider developing his own phone if Apple or Google barred his recently purchased company, Twitter, from app stores. Because of content filtering difficulties, Twitter may be banned from the Google and Apple App Stores.
When a Twitter user asked Musk if he would release a new phone if Twitter was removed from the Google or Apple app stores, Musk replied that he would. "I definitely hope it does not come to that," he remarked, "but if there is no other option, I will manufacture an alternate phone." Carl Pei, the inventor of Nothing, had an unusual reply to Musk's remark. He responded to his comment by adding he was looking forward to seeing what Musk did next.
If asked that Apple and Google can remove Twitter from their app stores?
If Musk does not follow their criteria, Apple and Google could easily remove Twitter from their app stores. Musk recently stated that Twitter's subscription plan will be available next week.
Musk intends to charge $8 for the plan, which grants customers access to premium features as well as a checkmark beside their names. If the rollout goes smoothly, Twitter's income will climb, but it won't be the only company to benefit. Twitter's premium subscription strategy will also benefit Apple and Google.
Remember that Apple and Google both charge a fee for subscriptions purchased on their own platforms. Both IT behemoths charge 15% to developers for subscription-based applications. The price was cut by 15% from 30% to 15%. While the other developers have no choice but to pay the commission, Elon Musk has always lambasted Apple and Google for charging it. He referred to it as a "tax on the internet," claiming that it is "ten times greater" than it should be.
Mark Gurman, a well-known tech analyst, has stated that if Musk attempts to circumvent Apple and Google's payment structures, they may ban Twitter from their stores. Another reason why the two internet titans can kick the microblogging site out is because of content moderation.
