JAKARTA - Last week, Twitter announced its latest tweet editing feature. At that time, the company said that the feature could be used by paid users on Twitter Blue.
The company says that when this feature is available, users will be able to edit their tweets for up to 30 minutes from when you post, and users can only edit their tweets five times.
The social media company told TechCrunch that it is currently observing user behavior and the number of edits available, in a period of time that may change at any time.
In addition to correcting typos or whatever, the company says that this feature may also be launched to stop people from abusing tweet editing by spontaneously changing content.
Twitter confirmed that Twitter Blue customers in New Zealand will get this feature for the first, and will then be followed by Twitter Blue users in Australia, Canada, and the US after studying more about the pattern of use.
Furthermore, experts argue that this feature could be used to spread political misinformation or crypto scams. But those examples will only appear after a large group of people start using this feature regularly.
Twitter Inc. said it was too early to decide whether the feature would be a threat or just an option for people to correct their stupid typos.
Customers paying 4.99 US dollars per month for Twitter Blue will soon be able to edit their tweets several times within 30 minutes of publication, Twitter said in a blog post, quoted by Reuters.
