Twitter, now known as X, is implementing a new feature that will make all user likes private. This change is expected to take effect tomorrow. The move has sparked a variety of reactions, with some users praising it as a way to protect individuals from public backlash for their opinions, while others criticize it for removing accountability. Supporters argue that making likes private will encourage more honest engagement and reduce the fear of being canceled for controversial opinions. Critics, however, worry that it could lead to a lack of transparency and make it harder to identify spam accounts. Elon Musk's decision is seen as a significant shift in how social media interactions are perceived and managed, with potential implications for political and social discourse on the platform. Some users also believe that this change will increase overall engagement.
