Shaw, the founder of Ai16z, recently wrote that X platform accused him of violating the terms of service, claiming that he sold data and bypassed API keys. The platform said that if he pays a monthly enterprise license fee of $50,000, they will no longer pursue the matter. The founder denies these accusations, stating that X platform incorrectly used his open source code as the reason for the ban and calling it "blatant extortion." Currently, he only pays a monthly certification fee of $1,000 and a developer license fee of $200, and is considering taking legal action.
