Elon Musk’s X Revamps Verification: Free Blue Check Returns, But With Confusion

Elon Musk’s platform, once Twitter and now known as X, has restored blue tick verification for some users, causing confusion in the community.

Initially, verification was only available to paying customers, but Musk said that accounts with a specific number of verified followers would be eligible for free.

Reactions to the shift were mixed, with some people frustrated and others excited.

Meanwhile, X continues to struggle with content filtering, misrepresentation, and advertiser blowback under Musk’s ownership.
