Yes, that\u2019s the day when folks honor weed because Twitter is now owned by a middle schooler.<\/p>\n With the legacy checks gone, Twitter will have verification marks<\/a> only for paid users and businesses, as well as government entities and officials. Now if a user sees a blue check mark and clicks on it, the label reads: \u201cThis account is verified because they are subscribed to Twitter Blue and verified their phone number.\u201d<\/p>\n Some users, including TechCrunch reporters, experienced Thursday a \u201cflickering\u201d blue check mark on their profiles. Others have seen their blue check marks disappear altogether.<\/p>\n Under Musk\u2019s rule, Twitter hasn\u2019t held back on its promise to remove the legacy check marks from even the highest of profiles figures. Even Pope Francis<\/a> couldn\u2019t escape the great unchecking of 4\/20.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n <\/br><\/br><\/br><\/p>\n
