Taliban leader praises Twitter for “freedom of speech” and “credibility”

The Hindu  

Elon Musk-owned Twitter has been praised by a senior Taliban leader, who claimed that its freedom of speech and credibility put it above other social media platforms. Haqqani’s tweet came five days after Meta launched its text-based public conversation app Threads, which has a similar user interface to Twitter. While Instagram CEO Adam Mosseri stressed that Threads did not aim to replace Twitter and would not actively court news and politics, the app saw 100 million sign-ups within a week of its launch. A new Twitter Blue subscription made verification a paid privilege, and resulted in several Taliban leaders, officials, and supporters buying blue ticks, reported BBC.
