The overhaul of Twitter’s verification system will include gray “official” labels for some high-profile accounts.
Twitter said Tuesday it will add a gray “official” label to some high-profile accounts to indicate that they are authentic, the latest twist in new owner Elon Musk’s chaotic overhaul of the platform’s verification system.
The platform's current verification system has been in place since 2009 and was created to ensure high-profile and public-facing accounts are who they say they are. Esther Crawford, a Twitter employee who has been working on the verification overhaul, said Tuesday on Twitter that the “official” label will be added to “select accounts" when the new system launches.
