Elon Musk,popular culture and the eroticization of little girls the newly crowned Chief Twit, wants people to pony up for that blue check.
It's been reported that Musk is considering making verification a Twitter Blue feature, while also ramping up the cost of the service to $20 per month. In effect, Twitter would essentially be charging its users for verification — and most of the internet is convinced they wouldn't pay up. Because who would pay for a silly little check mark?

Others were offended at the idea that Twitter would charge for a verification, a process that was created to protect against identity theft on the app.

Meanwhile, some users were pointing out that this new verification plan could be a nightmare for disinformation. For example, many journalists on the app are verified in an attempt to help users discern if info on Twitter is coming from a reliable source.

As a journalist, I am verified on Twitter. And unless my work requires it — and pays for it — there is a zero point zero percent chance I will pay to keep my verification. One: That is a ridiculously high price. Two: A single cent would be too much. Sure, verification is nice for work and probably boosts the visibility of my account, but paying to keep a blue check? That is extreme loser behavior. No way.
Anyway follow me @timmarcin — it's the real me, check mark or not.
