On Saturday, several users with at least a million followers reportedly began receiving unsolicited 'paid' blue checks from Twitter
. Yet, the blue checks reinstated on Saturday display that the accounts are verified because they are subscribed to Twitter Blue, the $8 a month premium service, which replaced the free verification once given to prominent accounts to prevent misinformation and impersonation from populating the platform.
“Wait I’m crying they’re giving them for punishment now,” Chrissy Teigen tweeted, sharing another account’s exasperation at having regained the badge. After she shared that, she too received the now dreaded badge of shame. “It won’t go away,”Teigen then discovered a way to make it disappear. “It’s gone! OK everyone be quiet no one move,” she joked. She shared how to get rid of it with commentator Jon Favreau,, “What the fuck did I do to deserve this” when he saw the blue check on his account.
. “Im serious lol.” At press time, Teigen is still holding strong sans badge, while Favreau’s blue check remains.
