Twitter owner Elon Musk has killed 'official' checkmarks for high-profile accounts just hours after the microblogging site started to roll out. The decision came a day after Twitter said that it would denote high-profile accounts in a way distinctive from the blue checkmark, which is now available to all Twitter Blue subscribers. Interestingly, Twitter has begun to roll out new badges that identify particular categories of official accounts, including government accounts, major media outlets and some public figures. In a tweet, Elon Musk said, "I just killed it."
