The social network Twitter will launch, next week, new icons to verify accounts of companies and members of the Government, which are added to the already used blue symbol, the owner of the company announced this Friday.
“Gold mark for companies, gray mark for Government, blue mark for people (celebrities or not) and all verified accounts will be authenticated manually, before activating the mark. Painful, but necessary,” said Elon Musk, through a message posted on Twitter.
Sorry for the delay, we will tentatively launch Verified on Friday of next week.
The gold check for business, the gray check for government, the blue check for individuals (celebrities or not), and all verified accounts will be manually authenticated before the check is activated.
Painful, but necessary.
-Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 25, 2022
In response to a user, the owner of Twitter explained that it is a service known as ‘Verified’, which will be provisionally activated on Friday of next week.
Musk also said that deliberate impersonation will be punishable by account suspension.
On Monday, Elon Musk indefinitely postponed verification of paid accounts due to the proliferation of fake IDs.
