Twitter said Wednesday it is moving forward with plans to remove thousands of legacy verification check marks previously doled out to celebrities, politicians, journalists and others — roughly 20 days later than initially promised.
Widespread verification will democratize journalism & empower the voice of the peopleFor more than a decade, Twitter had verified accounts with a small, blue check, a visual confirmation that the company had authenticated that the accountholder was who they said they were. But one of Musk’s first initiatives when he took over the site last fall was to declare that system would end, and instead he would instate a $7.99-per-month service that included, among other things, a blue check mark.
Twitter said it would start “winding down” the legacy system and removing check marks April 1, but many accounts kept their verification past that date.
