(Bloomberg) -- Twitter Inc. cannot rely entirely on advertisers, new owner Elon Musk tweeted in response to author Stephen King’s criticism that the platform reportedly plans to charge users about $20 a month to keep their Blue Check verification.
Twitter is looking to raise its optional Twitter Blue monthly subscription price to $19.99 from $4.99, and launch new features including paid user verification, the Verge reported late Sunday.
Musk, who recently changed his Twitter bio to ‘Chief Twit’, has now changed it to ‘Twitter Complaint Hotline Operator’.
