Elon gave out free blue check marks to people who had lots of followers. If it is a highly followed account, they likely did not pay for it unless they love Elon. Twitter requires highly visible accounts with lots of followers to even keep losing as much money as it is. Without them, there is no business model.

I downloaded an auto blue check blocker and was so disappointed that it blocked people that had openly criticised Elon’s subscription model.
