But they’re not. Because the checkmark doesn’t mean verified anymore. The moment you could pay for it it lost all meaning. That’s why they added the “Official” thing, which Elon quickly cancelled. Or uncancelled? I’ve lost track. We’re going to end up exactly where we were, after everyone departs. Fixing Twitter Blue to be more useful is a great idea. Making verification more transparent is fine. Adding a badge or something for Twitter Blue people so they can show off is fine. Making all three things the same? Terrible idea. I feel like he didn’t understand what verification really was, thinking it was a “you’re cool” vanity mark. And all this is the consequences.
