X is giving blue checks to influential users (which is what blue checks were supposed to be all along)
Popular posters will get a blue check, but not everyone is happy about it: People are now frantically posting to make it clear that they didn’t buy a blue check, but rather the blue check was foisted upon them. “Some personal news: I’m now a serial small business founder in Arizona who posts about fatherhood, faith and what it takes to get a roofing company to $100 million ARR,” former BuzzFeed editor — and newly minted blue check — Tom Gara posted on X. “This is punishment for posting too much,” wrote another reluctant blue check, Business Insider senior correspondent Katie Notopoulos.
