Twitter’s ‘official’ tick starts appearing on verified accounts in India

Twitter has started displaying a new tick badge with the word ‘official’ on recognized Twitter accounts of news sources and public figures in India. Gadgets 360 has got its own tick, as has Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The previous “blue tick” badge, indicating that an account has been verified, is still shown. Twitter recently caused a storm for changing the way its widely recognized blue tick works – instead indicating that an account belonging to a notable institution or individual has been verified by Twitter, They are now offered to everyone who subscribes to Twitter Blue, the company’s paid offering.

Updates: The check marks have disappeared from all accounts, with Elon Musk saying “I just killed it” in response to a tweet by Tech YouTuber Marques Brownlee, who had just gotten his own ‘official’ mark. It’s not immediately clear whether the rollout happened prematurely, or whether another change would be implemented in response to user confusion. The original story is as follows:

one of the following first major change declared by Twitter’s new CEO Elon Musk Blue Tick was reproduced and price hike twitter blue to $8 (approx. Rs. 650) per monthAfter initially suggesting that the privilege $20. should spend (about Rs 1,630). Musk has also indicated he wants to expand Twitter Blue For many countries, including India, before the end of November, and prices will be adjusted keeping purchasing power parity in mind.

Twitter Blue subscribers will be promoted to a higher level in search results, reply threads, and trending topic lists. This will result in the amplification of paid voices, which Musk is hoping will drive adoption of the premium subscription service. However, critics quickly noted that this defeats the purpose of verification, allowing anyone who pays for Twitter Blue to have what appears to be a verified account. This led to deliberate attempts to impersonate celebrities, including Musk, who soon clarified that parody accounts needed to be explicitly marked in their names, or risk permanent suspension from the platform.

It’s not yet clear how Twitter will decide which accounts are eligible for this badge, and whether everyone who was previously eligible for verification will be able to get one.
