We’re not even per week in from Elon Musk turning into the proprietor (or ‘Chief Twit’ as he calls the place) of Twitter, and already his plans for overhauling the verification course feel like a horrible concept.
In line with The Verge, Musk is planning to lift the month-to-month value of Twitter Blue, which provides you with the power to edit tweets, in addition, to getting customized icons and unique options, from $4.99 / £4.99 / AU$5.99 to $19.99 / £19.99 / AU$20.99. By subscribing, Twitter Blue customers may also now be verified, which provides them with a blue tick after their username – one thing that was as soon as restricted to verified customers, similar to notable public figures, politicians and members of the media.
