Awful site, the signup/login covers half the story without a x button.
- RyanKearney 15y agoAh no, not quite. Verified accounts usually have many more followers than people they're following. People such as a celebrity don't have time to sit there and follow every single one of their fans. A verified account can pretty much DM anyone they want to because the person they want to DM is more than likely already following them. There are times when your average Joe just wants to send a private message to someone but can't because that public figure is not following them back.

- RyanKearney 15y agoWhy would they be unhappy? Did you read the article? It's an option for the verified account holder.
