Weeks after abandoning the new Blue subscription, Twitter is finally relaunching it again – on December 12th.
The revamped Blue subscription is tweaked again to include colored badges for accounts based on their nature, an increased subscription price for iOS users, and a mandatory profile verification before offering the blue checkmark.
Twitter Blue Revamped Subscription
One of the many things that Musk messed up with Twitter is its Blue subscription which created havoc in the community. The stance of letting anyone get a blue checkmark without proper verification led to the rise of impersonation attacks, with one company losing billions of its market value overnight.
So to avoid such things from happening, Elon Musk decided to offer different colored badges for Twitter accounts based on their nature. He noted earlier that a gold-colored badge would be coming to corporate accounts, while a grey-colored badge for government and “multilateral accounts”.
