Twitter to reopen verification requests in 2021 after a three-year break

Twitter announced that it is relaunching its verification process with a new policy on January 20, 2021. Twitter suspended it in 2017. At that time, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey said its verification system was ’broken.’ Twitter said a new policy will be enforced, which has been refined from user inputs. Getting verified under the new policy is expected to be less cumbersome than it was before.
