Twitter will soon allow organizations verify related accounts: Elon Musk

Twitter‘s billionaire owner Elon Musk on Sunday said that Twitter will soon enable organizations to identify Twitter accounts associated with them, as the new Twitter owner continues to find ways to limit fake accounts on the platform.

He did not elaborate.

The social media platform paused its recently announced $8 blue check subscription service on Friday as fake accounts mushroomed, and new owner Elon Musk brought back the “official” badge to some users of the social media platform.

Fake accounts purporting to be big brands have popped up with the blue check since the new roll-out, including Musk’s Tesla and SpaceX, as well as Roblox, Nestle and Lockheed Martin.

Musk in a tweet yesterday said that Twitter Blue will probably “come back, end of next week”.

Twitter Inc’s new owner Elon Musk on Thursday raised the possibility of the social media platform going bankrupt, the day its trust and safety leader exited the company.

For the unversed, as reported by some users with a blue checkmark in India, Twitter Blue is introduced at Rs 719 per month in India. Starting November 9, Twitter has started including the blue checkmark as a part of the service.

Twitter has eliminated 4,400 of its 5,500 contract employees, with cuts expected to have significant impact to content moderation and the core infrastructure services, tweeted Casey Newton, a reporter for the tech publication Platformer, on Sunday.

Twitter did not immediately respond to Reuters‘ request for comment.
