"Twitter's X Removes Option to Hide Blue Check for Premium Users"

X will no longer allow users to hide their blue checkmarks, a feature that was previously available to paid subscribers. This decision comes after X began gifting blue checkmarks to popular accounts and has sparked backlash from users who are upset about losing the ability to hide their checkmarks. Some users are questioning the value of their paid subscriptions in light of this change, while others are concerned about the implications of X's decision to remove checkmarks without offering refunds in certain circumstances.
