[QUOTE="confusedlawstudent, post: 123938, member: 17277"] 13/11/2022 The most interesting story I read today was the chaos which arose after Twitter introduced the ability to pay for a blue tick. The blue tick on Twitter identifies whether an account is the real person or not. It used to be where only a select amount of people had them, like celebrities, but now anyone can pay for one for $8. This resulted in many people impersonating others, there were even impersonators of Elon Musk himself, and buying the blue tick so that it looked like the real thing. This is of course going to hugely contribute to the dissemination of fake news, and just make Twitter even more unreliable than it already was as a way to get current news information. However, I do think that it will go back to normal pretty soon - Musk will figure out someway to stop this. On the other hand though, the way Twitter is right now, it just seems like a kind of joke of an app to be on given the mess that there is right now. If this doesn't get sorted soon, I think other social network companies with the main focus on opinion sharing and public discourse (like Reddit) will get ahead. [/QUOTE]
