Musk's X tests $1 fee for new users in the Philippines and New Zealand_我的网站

一 |      8 月 25 日消息，苹果宣布，将放弃变更 iCloud+“隐藏邮件地址”（Hide My Email）域名，相关网站将继续使用 icloud.com 域名。    LONDON -- Elon Musk's social media platform X has begun charging a $1 fee to new users in the Philippines and New Zealand, in a test designed to cut down on the spam and fake accounts flourishing on the site formerly known as Twitter. The company said late Tuesday that it has started trying out the annual subscription method for new and unverified accounts. The program, dubbed Not a Bot, won't apply to existing users. It's not clear why it only applies to New Zealand and the Philippines or why those countries were chosen. “This new test was developed to bolster our already successful efforts to reduce spam, manipulation of our platform and bot activity, while balancing platform accessibility with the small fee amount,” the X support account tweeted. “It is not a profit driver.” Since Musk bought X a year ago, he has introduced a slew of changes such as renaming the platform and gutting its workforce — including its content moderation team. Outside watchdog groups say the changes have allowed misinformation to thrive on the platform, a problem that exploded after the Israel-Hamas war erupted. Musk previously turned to premium subscriptions as a tactic to boost the financially struggling platform’s revenue. One of his first product moves was to shake up the site's blue check verification system by launching a service granting checks to anyone willing to pay $8 a month. A flood of impostor accounts forced the service's temporary suspension days after launch.Under the test, new subscribers will get access to basic functions like posting content, liking or bookmarking posts, and reposting, quoting or replying to posts from other accounts. The platform said new users who don't subscribe will only be able to read posts, watch videos and follow other accounts.。

二 | 注意到，苹果这一决定距离最初公布调整方案仅约两个月。在今年 6 月时，苹果曾宣布将为“通过 Apple 登录”（Sign in with Apple）和“隐藏邮件地址”启用统一的新邮箱域名 private.icloud.com。作为参考，目前“通过 Apple 登录”使用 privaterelay.appleid.com，而“隐藏邮件地址”则与普通 iCloud 邮箱一样使用 icloud.com。不过苹果相应公告引发争议，原因在于许多用户认为 privaterelay.appleid.com 反而不如 icloud.com 保护隐私，这是因为 icloud.com 本身同时用于普通 iCloud 邮箱，使网站难以单独通过域名屏蔽“隐藏邮件地址”地址。如果改用独立的 private.icloud.com，平台就更容易识别并封禁这类隐私匿名邮箱，从而影响不愿提供真实邮箱地址的用户。苹果此次在开发者公告中表示，在进一步考虑并听取社区反馈后，决定让 iCloud+“隐藏邮件地址”地址继续使用 icloud.com，不再实施此前公布的域名迁移计划。不过，“通过 Apple 登录”仍将按照原计划调整。苹果表示，从今年晚些时候开始，新生成的“通过 Apple 登录”地址将使用 private.icloud.com，此前已经分配的 privaterelay.appleid.com 地址则会继续正常工作，并持续为用户转发邮件，不会受到影响。苹果同时建议开发者调整相关账户系统、邮箱验证逻辑和允许列表，同时支持 private.icloud.com 与现有的 privaterelay.appleid.com 域名。
