Anyone who signs up for a subscription to Twitter Blue gets a blue 'check' icon next to their profile - but that wasn't always the case.
A Twitter logo hangs outside the company's offices in San Francisco, Dec. 19, 2022.Starting April 1, Twitter users who don't subscribe to Twitter Blue are going to have to say goodbye to their blue check marks.
"This is a person that the powers that be at Twitter decided is important in some way," Amanda Silberling, a senior culture reporter at TechCrunch, said about the original check mark status. "Starting April 1, 2023, we'll begin winding down our legacy verification program," reads Twitter's help page. It goes on to detail the process by which users can receive a blue check. Accounts must be older than 30 days, for example. They also "may not impersonate individuals, groups or organizations to mislead, confuse or deceive others, nor use a fake identity in a manner that disrupts the experience of others on Twitter.
