omg this is so weird i feel bad for the ny times account losing its blue check mark like whats going on with elon's moods lol 
he's got a lot of power and isn't using it wisely this whole thing is super confusing and frustrating for users who just want to have trust in what they're reading online
i mean we get that verification can be problematic but this feels like a personal attack and not a thoughtful solution to the issue
