Verified Twitter users are going to have to pay up for their blue checkmarks – but apparently not as much as they might have. “Twitter’s current lords & peasants system for who has or doesn’t have a blue checkmark is bull***t. Power to the people! Blue for $8/month,” posted Musk on Tuesday. This came following outrage over reports that Twitter was going to charge verified users $20/month. (“If that gets instituted, I’m gone like Enron!” posted author Stephen King.) Musk said features that will roll out with the new plan include fewer ads, priority in replies, mentions and search, and the ability to post longer videos than the current limit.
