You can get verified on Twitter once again, as company relaunches verification for the first time since 2017
India Today
Twitter has finally reopened its verification process for the first time since 2017 with a new set of guidelines.
Twitter is finally making it possible for you to apply for that blue badge again, though the company has come up with revamped categories. The micro-blogging platform says that it will begin rolling out the new verification application process and reviewing public applications for verification over the next few weeks. For those unaware, the blue tick is one of the ways to distinguish the authenticity of accounts on Twitter. Any account verified on Twitter has a blue tick mark just after the user's name. However, with the relaunch of Twitter verification, the company has also introduced new guidelines for verified accounts on the platform. The company says those users who apply for a verified badge should have had no 12-hour or 7-day lockouts for violating Twitter rules in the past 12 months. The company has specifically listed the accounts that are not eligible to get the verified badge, and it includes parody, newsfeed, commentary and unofficial fan accounts, pets and fictional characters, accounts associated with the coordinated harmful activity/hateful content, and accounts that have violated our platform manipulation & spam policy.More Related News
