Twitter relaxes cannabis ad rules to lure in more advertisers from US

Twitter under its 420-friendly owner Elon Musk earlier this year became the first major social media company to allow cannabis advertisements. Now, the platform is relaxing those rules in an attempt to lure in more advertisers from U.S. states where marijuana is legal. Going forward, certified advertisers may feature packaged cannabis products in ad creative, Twitter said in a post on its website. Previously, cannabis advertisers could not show any products in their ads, nor could they actually promote their sale. They may also continue responsibly linking to their owned and operated web pages and e-commerce experiences for CBD, THC, and cannabis-related products and services," Twitter said. The billionaire Tesla CEO has been forced to make huge cost cuts and scramble to find more sources of revenue to justify his $44 billion purchase of Twitter. The platform also removed a ban on political advertisements in January. Still, companies interested in advertising cannabis products o

Twitter verification reappears, but some disavow Elon Musk's mark

Celebrities and other high-profile Twitter users are once again being verified by the social media platform and they don't know why the blue check marks reappeared nor do they seem too happy about it. Twitter removed the blue marks last week from accounts that don't pay a monthly fee. But the check marks mysteriously returned for many highly followed accounts over the weekend, leading some prominent users to disavow what's become a divisive symbol of Twitter owner Elon Musk's erratic changes to the platform. Accounts belonging to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Bette Midler, gymnast Simone Biles Owens, writer Neil Gaiman and rapper Lil Nas X were among the users all with more than 1 million followers who took to Twitter to make clear they didn't pay to get their blue check back. On my soul i didn't pay for twitter blue, u will feel my wrath tesla man! wrote the rapper who has 8 million followers. Added Gaiman, who has 3 million followers: "What a sad, muddled place thi

Musk's Twitter reinstates legacy blue tick on high-profile accounts

In a surprising turn of events, Twitter has restored verification badges on several high-profile celebrity accounts with millions of followers, just days after the microblogging platform culled the legacy blue checkmarks for non-paying users. The move assumes significance as Indian celebrities and top politicians from Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi lost verified blue ticks on their Twitter accounts this week after Elon Musk-led microblogging site started removing checkmark icons from accounts that did not pay a subscription fee. The coveted blue ticks have now made a surprising comeback on accounts of these celebrities. Top cricketers such as Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli who lost the blue tick mark on their Twitter handles, have also got them back. It was not immediately clear whether or not these accounts have paid for the verification. Former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah - who got the blue tick back on his Twitter handle - ...
