Washington Post: Twitter users #BlockTheBlue as ‘verified’ accounts take on new meaning. “Shortly after the #BlockTheBlue hashtag took off, Twitter on Friday suspended the @BlockTheBlue account. Musk supporters have meanwhile called on Twitter users to ‘pay the eight,’ referring to the $8 monthly fee to get a check mark through the Twitter Blue subscription. Twitter did not respond to a request for comment.”
