As Instagram preps for Twitter rival ‘Threads’ launch, Jack Dorsey and Elon Musk red flag privacy terms

Replying to the tweet, Musk also agreed with Dorsey.

However, it must be noted that among the categories that ‘Threads’ will access, there are only two things it does not have in common with Twitter — Health and Fitness and "Sensitive Info."

With the launch of ‘Threads’, Meta is seeking to take advantage of Twitter's problems since the social media service was taken over last year by Musk. Among the issues that have angered users, and spurred them to seek alternative platforms, are Twitter’s loosening content moderation policies, and requiring a monthly subscription fee to be labeled as an authentic account. There are also problems with site reliability.

The developments also come at a time when Twitter executive chair Musk has announced a temporary cap on how many posts users can read on the social media site. Also, to be able to use Tweetdeck, users need to be verified.

Musk's latest announcements to address data scraping have sparked a fierce backlash from Twitter users and ad experts said it would undermine new CEO Linda Yaccarino, who started in the role last month.
