Genuinely verified or paid for Twitter Blue? A browser extension enables people to find out.
With Twitter allowing users to verify their accounts for a monthly fee, the number of accounts with a blue checkmark — previously associated with prominent figures — has flooded the social media platform. A browser extension available for Chrome, Firefox and Safari plans to bring back the balance by revealing the accounts that have paid $8 for subscribing to Twitter Blue., Twitter rolled out the ‘Twitter Blue’ subscription as a means to discourage spam bots and fake accounts on the platform.
While a subsequent KYC requirement stifled the account verification of suspicious accounts, the number of verified accounts on Twitter skyrocketed — reintroducing doubt among users. A browser extension named Eight Dollars allows users to spot the difference between actual verified accounts and Twitter Blue users.Twitter now doesn't show whether accounts are verified or paid, but this plugin called Eight Dollars does.
Very useful in distinguishing a genuine account from the sad sap reply guys who paid for the blue check.
