Google said it's adding verification checkmarks to Gmail to boost its security. A blue tick will be visible when receiving emails from verified senders such as brands and companies.
Twitter will relaunch its blue checkmark subscription service on November 29, according to its CEO Elon Musk. This news comes after verified trolls posted inappropriate content on the platform.
Twitter has dropped the "Official" checkmark less than a full day after its release. CEO Elon Musk also said that the company will retain the original Twitter checkmark to avoid confusion.
Twitter has begun allowing some people to buy the blue checkmark for their profile from today. Availability is limited to five countries right now but, hopefully, this will expand soon.
Elon Musk has revealed that Twitter users will be able to get a blue tick if they buy Twitter Blue for $8 per month. They will get other perks too like priority replies, fewer ads, and more.
