Blue checks originally verified a celebrity account vs an impersonation.
Musk made them something people could pay for for clout.
This weekend, Twitter started giving celebrities blue checks without paying for it.
The celebrities are not happy about it because it implies they support Musk.
Famous anonymous tweeter @dril was verified after suggesting that everyone blocks anyone with a blue check.
Every time they change their username (normally "wint", @dril stays the same), their blue check is removed, so as punishment, @dril receives a blue check, then changes their name to remove it, then someone at Twitter gives them a blue check again.
