Meta followed Elon Musk’s Twitter changes that introduced the Twitter Blue premium subscription. The tech entrepreneur urged customers to subscribe to the service, granting them features like editing, posting long videos, and protection from fake accounts. In May 2023, Musk took a swipe at Facebook’s sister platform WhatsApp over privacy infringement. The Meta-owned app user accused the platform of recording him secretly while asleep between 4:20 am and 6:53 am. Facebook and Instagram users across the globe will soon start paying for the verification badge. Will the new subscription fees become costly to the users ?
