ELON MUSK CLAIMS THAT TWITTER'S BLUE TICK WILL BE UPDATED

  • 31/10/2022

Elon Musk, the new owner of Twitter, has stated that the process of obtaining the prestigious "blue tick" will be revised, amid reports that the company may begin charging $20 (£17) per month to be verified.

Days after taking over the social media giant, Mr Musk tweeted that the verification process was being revamped.

A blue tick is currently free and used to indicate that an account is genuine.

On Friday, Mr Musk completed his $44 billion (£37.9 billion) takeover and renamed himself Chief Twit on Twitter.

Throughout the months of legal wrangling that led up to the acquisition, the billionaire repeatedly expressed concerns about the verification process, as well as the number of spam and bot accounts he believes are on the site. Mr Musk's tweet, on Sunday, did not give any more details about what exactly might change.
