    Oh you have no idea how easy it is to create extra credit card numbers or buy gift cards. Regular people do this all the time to prevent giving websites their real credit card info. Regular people aren’t going to start paying for a social media site that was free for 17 years. They’ll move elsewhere or quit using it.

    As it is now, most spammers I’ve run across on Twitter have blue checkmarks. They’re already paying.

      It’s a barrier to entry and it has been proven to work.

      I’ve not seen any spammers and bots with blue ticks.
