Elon Musk came out applauding MrBeast on Twitter after the content creator starts following Kick on the platform. Mr Beasts’s decision comes after Twitch recently made public its new sponsored content policies. Adin Ross, another content creator on YouTube, took the cue and reached out to the business tycoon with a collaboration proposal on the table.
Twitch recently announced its new branded content policy, and MrBeast didn’t hold back on his opinions about it.
