Ever since Elon Musk took over as Twitter president a few weeks ago, it’s been quite a mess for the company. New rules that were sometimes enforced before being published, office closures, restrictions on members of the community, and a long etcetera. We have recently seen how access to Twitter with third-party applications had been restrictedwhere the developers of these applications wondered the reason, but now the reason is known due to an update to their developer guidelines where this practice is prohibited.
Is new norm has been updated as of yesterday which prohibits the use of the Twitter API for create or attempt to create a substitute or similar service for your main application. This will remove any product, service, application, website, platforms or similar service to its application and website like those that have been used up to now, among the best known Fenix Twitterriffic or Tweetbot.
It seems that after the events that have occurred since he was put in command, Elon Musk now wants to access to the social network only from the official applicationwhich would allow greater control over income. Necessary income after losing clients in advertising and seeing how offices close and seeing how they put their furniture up for auction to try to recover some cash that can avoid a bad end for the social network.

I am a Computer Engineer and my specialty is automation and robotics. My passion for hardware began at the age of 14 when I gutted my first computer: a 386 DX 40 with 4MB of RAM and a 210MB hard drive. I continue to give free rein to my passion in the technical articles that I write at Geeknetic. I spend most of my free time playing video games, contemporary and retro, on the 20+ consoles I own, in addition to the PC.
