Elon Musk has apologised for Twitter being “super slow in many countries”.

He tweeted that organisations on the microblogging platform will soon be able to find out Twitter accounts associated with them.

Here’s how he announced the rollout:

Twitter earlier opened the blue tick subscription program at $7.99 per month. It was earlier reserved for only verified accounts of personalities, politicians, journalists and public figures. 

The platform then introduced the official label for select accounts, which it killed hours later. 

Musk responded to questions at the B20 in Indonesia in Bali, “I have too much work on my plate. I’m working the absolute most that I can work — morning to night, seven days a week.”
