Elon Musk Defends Controversial $20 Blue Checkmark Twitter Plan | THR News

به نظرم خیلی کار خوبیه ،باعث میشه اکانت های فیک حذف بشن و همینطور ربات‌ها محدود .

The cost is not $20.00 it’s $8 for android phones and $11 for iPhones please stop making up stuff. These people have so much money and act like they are broke.

How do u beat the bots and trolls by charging public figures $8? 😂😂

Elon is a puppet and doesn't do squat without the permission of his investors. Twitter blue is also a cash grabbing lie. They took my money and then made up every reason they muster, just to refuse boosting and verification.

At the end of the day he bought Twitter its his company and he can do what he wants dont like it? Go somewhere else. Its his platform now so shut up and pay

Twitter employess were selling Blue Checkmarks for 15 grand a pop ... Elon just made it available for everyone for a mere price of 20 bucks ... now that's equality ... aren't the Left all about "Muh Equality" ?

Elon musk is past news

discord 2.0

Be like cleaning a refrigerator. Throwing out the spoiled crap.

Charge them $40 all those self important TWITS will pay it..

A lot of people seem to be upset that famous people are getting charged $8

people think that a blue checkmark is going to make everyone legit? wasnt like that before and wont change anything tbh

Principal lol… elitist 💩 cry more

Its idiotic how some ppl believe musk is a freedom crusader

"Contreversial". Says by who? The few figures that have to pay to keep their narcissism going?

Oh no, the poor blue checkmarks! The humanity!

Look Elon is a business man a billionaire. Twitter is not a gift for the people. If you don’t like what he’s doing pull out of Twitter. I have. I admire success but I don’t have to trust him.

The problem is that 90% of blue checkmarks aren't concerned with impersonation; they're using it as a class symbol. They're offended at the notion of any random Joe being able to buy what they once thought of as a virtual trophy.

Well we’re doomed when skynet finds out how to buy subscriptions

Elon Musk did a smart thing, it's better that anyone who pays Twitter 8 dollars can get the blue marking, because it's more democratic.

Musk should be mindful that its more than likely twitter is loaded with uncover intelligence agents acting as " employees " for years.

does this mean we can talk about 2020 election fraud without getting banned? if so i am happy.

So the left talks constantly about the rich paying more in taxes, but when a rich person has to pay $8 - $20 a month to keep their blue checkmark, it's bad. It's a business and has to make money somehow.

Also, no one that can't afford that, has a blue check.

I love the be fired part. He knows Twitter engineers are a bunch of feminine males dressed like Sissy's that don't even put in half a day of work.

lmao elon is embarassing himself, tryna beg king to stay

bye bye twitter

lol!

Who knew absolute free speech principles require us to pay twenty dollars?

brb, gonna make a few fake Charlie Kirk profiles and post nonstop pretending to be him raging about his massive head and tiny face and fork over $80 for 10 of them, but since they're all verified you can't say they're not the real Charlie Kirk

Shots fired but it's ok cause. My words actually hurt!

I'm talking about the Croatians shooting bb guns at the serbian air force.

Can you hear me now so is sprint

Now another lesson I'm going to teach is that looks like Goody's is out of commission!

You see if you wreck your car make sure you have an emergency candybar!

Call me crazy but your the one to blame Zuckerberg. You see metta world life vr is a place you can create your own world. Even though Legoland still trump's this false reality. It still is a horrible reality all in itself. Its called my space?

It's not $20, it's only $8... This man has no clue how to run a profitable social media company. Is he trying to turn Twitter into Nitter or crash the numbers that low? I hope he has better ideas that price tags on check marks and make it more like Wechat. Sorry I don't want Twitter to be like the app used to spy on us and force social conformity like WeChat. I wanted him to buy Twitter too, hard to make it worse, I guess I was wrong, didn't even take a week. But we can just move onto anything else.

Let him do that. It'll be a great start for getting people back into the real world (just like the pandemic made a lot of people move around from jobs they didn't like). Why complain about something when the man gonna do what he wants to do with it anyways? It's his company *shrugs*. Y'all don't worry, someone else will start a Twitter (that's not named Twitter) and the free people will move to it. OR people will learn to stop looking for attention from outsiders who don't even know them and go back to making connections with humans instead of an app filled with robots that's giving you the attention you're looking for. It's a win-win. Maybe in a sense he is trying to free us.

You can send 5 tweets for free, then you need to hook your phone up to a generator.

At this point it's the future largest platform for communication.

I new from the start that this was gonna be his worst investment that he gonna regret all his life and he already realizes it

And I’ve deleted my account. His cars suck as well.

Countdown until he sells it at a loss.

Who is Gavin Grewsom? 🤪

Bye bye tweeter!

Threatening your employees with being fired over a ridiculously tight deadline for an idea so well thought out that you change the price three times in three days at a company you desperately tried to weasel out of buying is exactly the brilliant mind you need to land a man on Mars by 2022 and create fully automatic robotaxis by 2020.

i've never used twitter but im for freedom of speech and against social media networks sensoring based on partisan biases.

If this rolls on like this.. 2 years and nobody talks about twitter anymore.

It hasn’t been the Wild West since 2011. It’s not the Wild West now. Calm down.

These influencers get millions from advertisings on social medias
Yet they complain $8 ?
