X tells advertisers to spend $1k per month or risk losing verification status

My employer was looking into testing advertising on Twitter, and the $1000 cost to entry was a hard stop on that. Seems like a very poor policy.

Dang you are super duper passionate about defending twitter.

Maybe parent feels that the optics of being an “unverified” advertiser is about as good as not advertising at all, therefore the de-facto minimum is indeed $1k.

As a third party person who has never had a Twitter account, I don't think someone pointing out something that's easily verified as being false, as stated, is "defending twitter".

How about when they have a 2-year long post history that exclusively pushes back against Twitter and Elon criticism?

I think it's a great policy. Hopefully Elon will raise the price another tenfold or more.

Presumably to hasten the exodus.
