Elon Musk has started rolling out a $7.99-a-month Twitter Blue subscription service. U.S. President Joe Biden, however, is concerned that the billionaire has bought a social media platform “that spews lies all across the world.” Stating that there are “no editors anymore in America,” Biden stressed: “How do we expect kids to be able to understand what is at stake?”
Twitter Rolls Out $7.99/Month Blue Subscription
Tesla CEO and Twitter boss Elon Musk has begun rolling out the Twitter Blue subscription service. Users on the social media platform began noticing Friday that they could now sign up for the Twitter Blue verification for $7.99 a month.
“Starting today, we’re adding great new features to Twitter Blue,” a notice on Twitter reads. The service is currently available in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the U.K.
The notice lists three features that are “coming soon” for Twitter Blue subscribers. Firstly, the company explained that Blue subscribers will only see “half the ads” and they will be “much better ones.” The social media giant detailed: “Since you’re supporting Twitter in the battle against the bots, we’re going to reward you with half the ads and make them twice as relevant.” In addition, Blue subscribers can “post longer videos” and they will have “Priority ranking for quality content.” Twitter elaborated:
Your content will get priority ranking in replies, mentions and search. This helps lower the visibility of scams, spam, and bots.
A user asked Musk when the Twitter Blue subscription service will be available in India. He replied: “Hopefully, less than a month.”
Musk also revealed Saturday:
Twitter will soon add ability to attach long-form text to tweets, ending absurdity of notepad screenshots … Followed by creator monetization for all forms of content.
