Twitter Blue starts rolling out, and there’s chaos thanks to fake accounts

“Please note that Twitter will do lots of dumb things in coming months. We will keep what works & change what doesn’t. (sic),” tweeted Elon Musk last night as the company’s Twitter Blue subscription service started to roll out. Well, the company’s new subscription plan appears to be an indicator of just how chaotic things will get at the platform. The new system lets anyone get verified for the price of $8 price in the US. And unsurprisingly, the rollout did not go all well with several fake accounts getting verified and spreading misinformation.
