That's true but the entire reason why they needed verified symbol to begin with was to battle copycat accounts/theft and hacking etc. Its purpose, much like Youtube verification symbol isn't for showing off your "superiority" or whatever.

 

I imagine the only ones who will be taxed will be the ones that want it as a vanity feature, so the rich will be exempt. Otherwise it will be a mess

Well that will erase the verification to a lot of pseudo-journalists and label employees that have it for absolutely no reason

 

I thought it was stupid at first but I kind of makes sense

Good point, but the purpose of the verification is to ensure people that that account is the confirmed official account of a public figure and not a fan page or fake account. Maybe Elon could limit verification to more notable public figures instead of charging people for it.

Seems like 80% of users in this thread support the idea. Are they also kissing Elon's ass? :swan:  Take a seat.

I’m ok with this tbh, make them pay and less ads we all win, or make a second tier badge like for pseudo verified users.
