These are the 6 categories of accounts that can qualify for verification: https://t.co/jkhJaS5rRX pic.twitter.com/dvokO11dsN

You can get verified on Twitter once again. If you fit one of these groups
— Luca Hammer (@luca) May 20, 2021
- Government
- Companies, brands and organizations
- News organizations and journalists
- Entertainment
- Sports and gaming
- Activists, organizers, other influential individualshttps://t.co/l9CeiwromT
If these are all the categories that Twitter considers appropriate for verification status, it only points at the problem this app plays in elevating nonsense at the expense of expertise.

Influencers? YUP.
Academics? NO.
Activist? SURE.
Scholar? NOPE. https://t.co/KnVLETcnOf
Check out more on our improved verification policy, the lowdown on the new application, and what we’re working on next: https://t.co/40PPsu8360

And if you’re planning to apply, follow this thread for what you need to know about our eligibility criteria ?
I'm glad they're doing public apps again, but annoyed that for "influencers" you either have to be trending on Google, have your own Wikipedia article, or have journalists write multiple articles about you (?!?) to be considered? ? https://t.co/awztLACYi5

I don't give a fuck about a blue checkmark. That's not "verified." You can't rescind a verification. Those people didn't suddenly stop being themselves.
