Twitter sets a limit on the number of tweets that can be viewed per day, Elon Mask explains the reason as ``to deal with extreme scraping''

Elon Musk, who bought Twitter, revealed that he has set a viewing limit on Twitter. Initially, the daily browsing limit was 6000 for authenticated accounts subscribed to Twitter Blue and 600 for unauthenticated accounts, which is 1/10, but this limit has gradually increased. I'm here.
At around 2:00 on July 2, 2023, Mr. Musk tweeted, ``We have temporarily placed restrictions to deal with extreme levels of data scraping and system manipulation,'' and set Twitter restrictions on viewing tweets. I made it clear.
To address extreme levels of data scraping & system manipulation, we've applied the following temporary limits:
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 1, 2023
- Verified accounts are limited to reading 6000 posts/day
- Unverified accounts to 600 posts/day
- New unverified accounts to 300/day
The initial restrictions are as follows.
Authenticated account (Twitter Blue subscription account): View up to 6000 tweets per day
Unverified accounts: View up to 600 tweets per day
Newly created unverified accounts: View up to 300 tweets per day
Due to the sudden restrictions on browsing, many users were unable to browse Twitter, so from around the evening of July 1, 2023, many tweets such as ``I can't browse tweets'' began to be posted. .
After that, the browsing limit increased to 8000 verified accounts per day, 800 unverified accounts, and 400 new unverified accounts.
Rate limits increasing soon to 8000 for verified, 800 for unverified & 400 for new unverified https://t.co/fuRcJLifTn

Since then, the browsing limit has increased to 10,000 verified accounts per day, 1,000 unverified accounts, and 500 new unverified accounts.
Now to 10k, 1k & 0.5k

On his parody Twitter account, Musk said, ``The reason I set up a 'view restriction' is because we are all addicted to Twitter and we need to get out.I do good deeds for the world on Twitter. That's why I retweeted the tweet.
The reason I set a “View Limit” is because we are all Twitter addicts and need to go outside.

I'm doing a good deed for the world here.
Also, that's another view you just used.
He also tweeted, 'Oh, the irony that if you complain about browsing restrictions, you will reach the browsing restrictions.'
Oh the irony of hitting view limits due to complaining about view limits
