Twitter owner, Elon Musk, said the platform will soon delete a total of 1.5 billion accounts that have become dormant. According to him, this will help to free the space being occupied by those accounts on Twitter.
Musk said most of the accounts may have been deleted by the owners, as there have been no tweets or login activities on them for years
This is coming amidst plans by Musk to restore all accounts suspended by Twitter before he bought the company. According to data from Whizcase, a total of 13.7 million accounts were suspended by Twitter between 2018 and 2021. Within that period, the highest suspension, 7.8 million, was recorded in 2019
