appeared at the 2023 Code Conference on September 27th and spoke with CNBC&#8217;s Julia Boorstin about the platform formerly known as Twitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unfortunately, <strong>her responses about the company&#8217;s direction were not reassuring <\/strong>and indicated a possible rift with its owner, Elon Musk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At a crucial moment midway through the interview, the executive mentioned that the leadership of the social media platform might not <strong>be aware of Musk&#8217;s plans to impose a mandatory monthly fee for Twitter\/X users<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Elon Musk announced <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/elon-musks-latest-thought-may-end-twitter-forever-forever?\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">his intention to make this change earlier this month<\/a>, stating it was &#8220;the only way&#8221; he could think of to combat bots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, when asked to confirm Elon Musk&#8217;s plans to turn Twitter into a paid website, <strong>Yaccarino was unable to respond to any questions regarding it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter

were specifically moving to that, or that he&#8217;s thinking about it?&#8221; <strong>Yaccarino inquired, after first asking Boorstin to repeat the question<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;He said that was the plan,&#8221; Boorstin responded. &#8220;Did he consult with you before announcing it?&#8221; &#8220;We talk about everything,&#8221; Yaccarino said, refusing to give a direct answer, sounding much like when someone doesn&#8217;t want to provide a concise response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Yaccarino then proceeded to evade the question for several minutes, even though it was asked for the third time<\/strong>, choosing instead to shift the focus towards her role at Twitter\/X and praise Musk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If there&#8217;s any glimmer of hope, it&#8217;s that <strong>Yaccarino&#8217;s apparent ignorance about Musk&#8217;s monetization plans might indicate that it
