But since that caused a lot of chaos, the company reinstated the checkmark for top accounts.
#30 days of framer x verification
In April, Twitter discontinued its legacy verification program and removed checkmarks from accounts. Ironically, X talks about reducing impersonation and spam but doesn’t offer verification tools to all users. The company is currently offering ID-based verification for paid users only. Plus, they will get to make frequent changes to their names, usernames or profile photos without losing the checkmark. X said that, in the future, it plans to expedite the review process for checkmarks if a user verifies their IDs. Notably, last month, the company rolled out a way for paid users to hide their checkmarks from their profiles. The company also said that users with ID verification will get “prioritized support from X Services,” but it is hard to understand what this means. But you can only see it when you click on the blue checkmark on the profile page. Users who go through the verification badge will have a note that says that their government ID was verified.
“X currently focuses on account authentication to prevent impersonation and may explore additional measures, such as ensuring users have access to age-appropriate content and protecting against spam and malicious accounts, to maintain the integrity of the platform and safeguard healthy conversations,” it said. The company said it might age-gate some content based on the age derived from the ID. The ID-based verification seems like a preempted step that currently leads to almost no benefits. This is most likely because of the stringent data protection laws of the region. X’s support page for verification suggests that, while ID verification is available in “numerous countries,” it is not available in the European Union (EU), the European Economic Area (EEA), and the United Kingdom.
