Elon Musk has announced a series of limitations for the social network Twitter that include a viewing cap of 6,000 messages a day and the publication of 600 messages for unverified accounts amid the problems that users are having to view content.

In addition, new unverified users can only access 300 messages a day, as Musk himself explained in a series of provisional measures to “address the extreme levels of data extraction and manipulation of the system.”

This is the latest in a series of incidents that have plagued Musk’s social network since it was acquired by the Tesla and SpaceX mogul a year ago.

Users can access the Twitter interface, but the message rail does not appear on both the web and the app and instead you can see an error message: “exceeded the rate limit” or “Something went wrong. Please try to reload “. When asked for a comment on what is happening, the company has responded as usual with a brief “poop” emoji.

In February, messages could not be published for 90 minutes after an error for exceeding the “daily limit” and in March the incident arose because users could not click on links or view photos. Other problems arose after the announcement of layoffs at the company or after the closure of a data center.
