This is not the new API pricing, this is an existing API's pricing that has probably been the same for years.

This API launched in 2017 with what appears to be the same pricing structure:

> Pricing for these elevated tiers of the Search Tweets API starts at $149/month

Well, clearly not.

Quote from @TwitterDev:

"Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead"

Yes, they are adding fees to the currently free APIs, the OP is not the currently free API, it's a paid API that has been around since 2017 and has always been expensive. There has been no announcement of what the new cost structure will be because that would require Elon Musk to plan more than a few days ahead
