In a dramatic turn of events earlier today, social media witnessed a fiery exchange between two of the world’s most influential tech billionaires — Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk. The public spat unfolded on Twitter (now “X”), sparking widespread online debate and drawing millions of reactions within minutes.
It all began when Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg weighed in on Elon Musk’s controversial ownership of Twitter. In a rare tweet, Zuckerberg wrote:
“It has been a few years since I last logged into this platform and I have to say that Elon Musk has ruined it. The algorithms only favor people who pay for the verification badge, and that kinda sucks because before, even a person with just a few followers would pop up on my timeline. Elon Musk must sell the app back to the owner because I doubt he knew what he was doing when he created this app!”
Zuckerberg’s sharp criticism immediately went viral, igniting heated debates among tech enthusiasts, influencers, and everyday users. Many echoed his concerns about Twitter’s algorithm changes, which critics argue have tilted engagement in favor of paid subscribers.
But Elon Musk, known for his quick and often biting comebacks, wasted no time firing back. In a short but stinging reply, Musk wrote:
“Son, when your net worth becomes the same as mine then I will start taking advices from you.”
The exchange has since dominated global headlines, with fans and critics alike dissecting every word. Some users praised Zuckerberg for “speaking the truth,” while others hailed Musk’s unapologetic confidence.

This isn’t the first time the two billionaires have clashed publicly. From tech innovation to the rumored cage fight challenge in 2023, the rivalry between Musk and Zuckerberg has been both professional and personal.
For now, the world watches as two of the most powerful men in technology trade barbs — leaving one burning question in the air: will this billionaire beef escalate into something bigger?
