Verification was first launched in 2009 as a response to complaints from celebrities. Only public figures at risk for impersonation were eligible for a blue check mark. In 2016, Twitter opened the application process to everyone. https://t.co/ceulJmCEzR — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter already has a paid tier called Twitter Blue, where users pay $4.99 a month. The paid verification system would become part of Twitter Blue, and the price would be increased, according to a person familiar with discussions. https://t.co/ceulJmCEzR — PolitiTweet.org
