Twitter to bring a new feature for organisations that will help them to identify parody and fake accounts, Elon Musk announces

Elon Musk has announced to roll out a new feature on Twitter that will allow organisations to let know all the Twitter accounts associated with them. It might help to combat parody and fake accounts proliferating on Twitter.

New Delhi: Tech billionaire and Twitter new owner Elon Musk has announced to roll out a new feature on the platform that will allow organizations to identify which other Twitter accounts are actually associated with them. The feature might help organizations to battle over parody and fake impersonation that are causing havoc and chaos on the platform due to the availability of the Twitter blue tick monthly subscription.

Rolling out soon, Twitter will enable organizations to identify which other Twitter accounts are actually associated with them — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) November 13, 2022

“Rolling out soon, Twitter will enable organizations to identify which other Twitter accounts are actually associated with them.” Musk tweeted on November 13.

Reacting on the post, a Twitter user named David C Bell said it’s fun to watch Elon Musk slowly reinvent the exact same verification system that he destroyed.

Will any user be able to “be” / create an organization? Or will Twitter be the arbiter of what constitutes an organization?

Answering the question on  whether Twitter will be the arbiter of what constitutes an organization, Elon Musk said there was no choice but for Twitter to be the final arbiter. However, he was open for suggestions.

Another user reacted and asked about the timing of the deployment of the new system. He said it was a very serious question.

This is a very serious question. How much time did you think this through before announcing it. https://t.co/lhgt6byiuL — Ray [REDACTED] (@RayRedacted) November 13, 2022
