Twitter's new CEO, Elon Musk, has stated unequivocally that he will not change his mind about charging a monthly fee for Twitter's "Blue Tick."
Musk proposed an $8 price for the new Twitter Blue membership shortly after taking over as CEO of Twitter. This is the first time a Twitter user had to pay for a verification badge.
Musk's new strategy has sparked widespread outrage on the site. But Musk has a strong retort for all complainants.
On Twitter, he warned detractors, "To all complainers, please continue complaining, but it will cost $8."
He also discussed the Twitter Blue situation. Priority will be given to comments, mentions, and searches; lengthier movies and audio can be submitted; advertisements will be reduced by half, and publishers will be able to bypass paywalls.
Elon has stated that Twitter will display a "secondary tag" for public personalities, which appears to be in place for politicians at the moment. This will aid in visually distinguishing significant accounts from the general population.
According to previous rumors, Elon Musk may have given Twitter engineers a deadline of November 7, 2022, to implement the new Twitter Blue service, suggesting that the debut may be closer than many believe.
Elon stated that the pricing will be modified based on "country proportional to purchasing power parity."
