Now that he owns Twitter, Elon Musk has given employees their first ultimatum: Meet his deadline to introduce paid verification on Twitter or pack up and leave.

The directive is to change Twitter Blue, the company's optional, $4.99 a month subscription that unlocks additional features, into a more expensive subscription that also verifies users, according to people familiar with the matter and internal correspondence seen by The Verge. Twitter is planning to charge $19.99 for the new Twitter Blue subscription, though that price is subject to change. Employees working on the project were told on Sunday that they need to meet a deadline of November 7th to launch the feature or they will be fired.

I'm sure bad actors won't take advantage of this to get verified to promote misinformation while looking like a legitimate source right?! Right?!?!

I hope one day someone put Elon in his place. He think that his employees have no value and treats them like trash. It's not like we have never seen this backfire so hard.
