There’s conflicting info flying around. Elon said somewhere that the “Top 10,000 organizations will be grandfathered in.” [1] Lots of publishers — Vox, Buzzfeed, Washington Post, CNN — now have a gold checkmark, which denotes an organization. I question whether they all signed up for the $1,000/month plan. I think Elon stripped the NY Times and kept them out of organizational status out of spite, because they publicly tweeted that they wouldn’t sign up.
