Twitter CEO Elon Musk, in an effort to improve the platform, announced that organizations registered on it will soon be able to indicate which Twitter accounts are associated with them. He wrote that it will be available soon.

Following the completion of the Twitter deal, Musk made a series of decisions aimed at cracking down on fake Twitter accounts. Part of the plan to combat them was the rollout of the $7.99 Twitter Blue subscription service for iOS users, which allowed users to receive a blue verification checkmark on their profiles. After pranksters and pests took advantage of this to create fake accounts and have fun impersonating various organizations and famous people, Twitter temporarily paused the subscription rollout in order to improve it.
