Even better, there is absolutely nothing to lose.  Twitter was a horrible cesspool pre-Musk and nothing Musk does now or going forward can make it substantially worse.  In fact, if Twitter just died and went away it would be a rather large net plus for everyone with the exception of Musk and Twitter stock owners.

He took the company private, there aren't any public shareholders anymore.

It hasn't gone into effect yet, nobody that's verified is paying $8 as of today.

I believe those who are already verified are grandfathered in as well.

He does have co-investors, however. Musk doesn't own 100% of it.

I'm seeing a bunch of articles saying it launched on Saturday. You're saying that it launched but hasn't gone into effect yet?

I don't even understand what's going on with these checkmarks. there's two kinds now? or there was, briefly, and now they're not?

it seems like they're still doing the $8/month thing. but the whole point of the blue checkmark was to provide assurance that the person attached to the account is who they claimed to be. so why would someone pay $8/month if it no longer is going to provide that assurance?

or is it? 

I don't use twitter for anything except sharing crap here pretty much. occasionally with the wife. the checkmark crap never held interest.
