It is not even a week since Musk formally acquired Twitter, the microblogging site is reportedly planning to revise its entire user verification process.
Twitter's new owner Elon Musk has said that the verification process on the platform, which adds a blue tick next to the profile name, is being revamped.
Users would have to subscribe to Twitter Blue at $20 a month or lose their "verified" badges if the project moves forward, according to the report.
Moreover, users who are already verified will get 90 days to subscribe to Twitter Blue in order to keep the blue tick on their profile. It remains unclear whether Twitter will change rules to make the verification process more strict or lenient.
The report also points out that Twitter engineers are given a deadline to revamp the Twitter verification process or they will lose their jobs.
