Twitter Blue Users: Twitter had announced a few days ago that from April 1, the blue badge would be removed from the IDs of already verified users. Although the blue tick has not been removed from anyone’s ID till the news is written. At that time the company had said that users would have to take a paid subscription for Blue Tick. After this announcement, a separate controversy started on social media. Some users are telling this decision of the company right and many wrong. Users on social media also say that we will not pay for Blue Tick, but will create an ID on the Indian microblogging app Koo and get it verified there. In such a situation, the question arises whether the Ku app is also considering paid subscription like Twitter? In this regard, India TV spoke to Mayank Bidawatka, co-founder of Koo app, and he said that the company is not planning to do anything like this at the moment.
Ku is not going to bring subscription policy
He said that taking away blue ticks from users is tantamount to taking away their digital identity and tarnishing their online presence. The basic premise of verification was to provide a badge of authenticity so that people know who to follow and also reduce the risk of identity theft on the platform. Microblogging platform is a public platform and it should give priority to the needs of its users over the desire for profit. The pay-for-use policy goes against the principles of a democratic social platform where everyone has an equal playing ground. At Koo App, we are focused on building a safe and inclusive platform that gives everyone an equal chance to express themselves and be heard. We provide free yellow eminence tick to all celebrities on the platform as well as free self verification for users. We pride ourselves on the transparent functioning of our platform which recognizes excellence without any payment. We are committed to protecting this digital right for all celebrities and users and ensuring that Maverick remains free.
Company will provide ChatGPT facility for free
Recently Koo App has added ChatGPT to the platform and now ChatGPT is also moving towards subscription with ChatGPT Plus. In such a situation, the question arises whether the company will charge money from the users who will use ChatGPT on Ku. Mayank Bidawatka answering this question says that we are always looking for ways to make content creation easier for our users and adding ChatGPT is the first step towards providing great content to creators in the blink of an eye. We are the first microblogging platform in the world to use this tool on our platform. The feature is currently available for Verified and Eminent Profiles and will soon be rolled out to all users on the platform.
